Hey guys,

worried that the plates my dealer puts on are going to be really basic. I usually get 3D text, with a black boarder and a GB euro badge. But i'd also like the BMW m-tech plate holder.

anyone know if you can pay extra for them to make the plates up properly?

cheers

Isn't 3d text illegal?

Hey guys

The plates my dealer (Sytner Newport) put on were of good quality but basic so as I have done in the past I had a pair made up locally - 3D lettering (which is legal in UK as per DVLA website) with black border; cost £16 for the pair plus £2 for the very sticky pads to attach them to the car (I think the plates look neater than using screws/bolts). Didn't think to ask the dealer if they could provide such plates but will do next time. I am not aware of the m-tech plate holder but I did try a black plastic holder from a VW Golf but decided the plates looked better fixed direct to the car.

3Detters are perfectly legal. These are the holders I'm talking about:
