You're better off with a normal sized plate if you either have a small one stuck in a stupid place or a second one in your windscreen, looks ridiculous.

3/4 size on my old old corsa

I bought some Standard Size plates and DIY Trimmed them

Maintains the Standard Font and Spacing Sizes that way, and never had any issues with or attention from the Fuzz.

My old Corsa



Had 4 coppers tell me to change it, but none could be arsed with the paperwork, so never changed it. Never got done for it.

had a small plate on the front of my gsi rep and the police was always stoppin me to take it off. In the end a police women pulled it off herself and gave me a fine. Its now on there office wall ;) glad i sold it now. . .

i always use the same argument well used too been a long time since i was pulled lol.

The thing is i don't have a recess anymore,maybe just needto get a standard one to save getting pulled. Is it illegal to have one in the window?

Ive had two 3/4 plates now.
The first was a lot smaller than the newer '3/4' plate i ordered off fancyplates.com - but tbh the newer larger (but smaller) one looks better :thumbs:


It fills the recess perfectly :cool:

My god that is small :lol:

mine very very small was a bit of a mistake when ordering sure its 6"X 3" good job i only use the car once in a blue moon.

Wouldnt bother tbh, they look tidy dont get is wrong but used to get pulled all the time for it! had two of the plates took off me!

Standard is 20.5 x 4.5

3/4 like one above is 16 x 3.5

Dimensions of 3/4 again mate i have forgotten,that standard font?

3/4 and no hassle what so ever (touch wood)

Need to order a new front number plate and really don't have space for a full size one. Post pics of your front plates the size and if you have had much hassle for them :thumbs:
