Tbh with that car the front numberplate looks shit both big and small, it needs to be small enough to not overhang the bottom of the car really (IMO ofc)

I run jap size font on my car which is smaller than uk font but still legal. Then if you cut the plate down to have a 11mm border its still legal. Passes an mot fine once the mot test read the dvla law on number plate sizes lol

djgritt - Where did you get the edges trimmed? Or did you buy them like that/do it yourself?
Could do with doing this to mine so the the fmic gets as much cold air as possible. As it's currently obstructing it.

DIY In my works Perspex Model Shop - used a big Bandsaw jobby to do them, then a rotary sander to profile the corners, then a very light smear of Sealer all round to prevent any water ingress 
Same method used for both my cars

I always think they look a bit crap on a corsa and other cars that havea big recess for a normal plate.
