Number plate
Hi all, having recently cracked my front plate I am on the hunt for a replacement. I appreciate I can't get the exact wording at the bottom but can anyone point me to a supplier who can at least do the same style, preferably without their own logos etc on?

Thanks.

Have a word with fancyplates.com. The guy did me a custom plate with text as I wanted after I sent him a pic of what I wanted, this is well within his scope Thumbs Up Instagram: L90andy

Not the answer you are looking for but, I always trim the depth of my front number plates to be a couple of millimetres less than the depth of the bumper. This much reduces the chance of broken or dislodged plates due to off road collisions or when standing on the bumper.

Obviously I stick with the regulation font size and style on the specified reflective backing so it doesn't attract the attention of the law unnecessarily.

Yeah now Lookers Park Royal, but just moved a 100meters further up along the A40 from their previous location (which is now a tesla dealer)

I thought all plates now have to show the maker of the plate, which may or may not be the supplier of the vehicle?

As of September 2021 there will be a new standard for UK number plates. The current BS145d will be replaced by BS145e. All number plates will have to show the suppliers name and post code in the bottom centre whilst the manufacturers name and BS145e will have to be displayed in the bottom right hand corner.

The new BS145e is being introduced to make it clearer for ANPR cameras. Defender 90XS SW
