No1 Show Plates ARE AWSOME!!!!

Hoops · 01-07-2009, 06:45 AM

Just wanted to say how massively impressed i am with No1 Show Plates. I cant remember who gave me their details (thank you anyway!!) but they are a bloody great bunch and super professional. I am very rarely impressed by the end result when i special order anything - but these guys have exceeded my expectations.
The Porsche has a small number plate holder that is about 48x8cm on the front bumper and i specifically wanted a standard legal plate for the rear and a 49x9 cm plate for the front. I wanted standard legal 3D lettering with honeycomb background - which was fine for the rear - but i was concerned that the lettering would have to be another style type face in order to go on the front, which i didnt want. They told me they could reduce proportionally the standard 3D legal lettering accordingly to fit the front.
They arrived just TWO days later and i am stunned at how good they look. best bit is they are much cheaper than Halfrauds and much better quality and design. BIG THUMBS UP to these guys!!!

How much mate, and do they do little plates?

After the last thread about number plates, I went to them for my new registration. Ordered it on 22nd December in the afternoon, paid the extra for next day delivery and it arrived the following morning - very fast! - At least I had a present to open on Christmas day - now I have to wait for DVLA to send the paperwork through!

Oddly, they aren't legal number plates because of the side badge. Although SCO and St Andrews flag is legal, having the European stars above with those two, isn't - yet. So no BS number on the plate which means the cops have an excuse to stop me.

As for quality, time will tell as my FancyPlates numbers are peeling at the bottom edge of the plates. Hopefully these will be better - they were also cheaper than the FancyPlates version.

I've used them before, they are the mustard!

I used www.myshowplates.com when I ordered mine. Didn't pay any extra for next day delivery, but they did turn up the very next day.
Quality of the plate is very good - the actual plate is quite thick and feels like it will outlast the car.
Just waiting for flashy blue lights in my rear view mirror, due to the slightly illegal spacing and typeface now!!

So they are good at plates, but what about bowls, dishes, pots and pans?
