Pressed plate Vs flat plate

Recommended Posts

I've had pressed plates on a few cars, can really depend on the car and does change the look more than you'd think. 
My older VWs seemed to suit them quite well and I think they'd look good on the earlier Caymans, not perhaps the latest though?

My E60 BMW which is my current daily came with the 4D plastic type plates... which are hugley expensive for what they are.. they were the first thing to go! 

They scream chavvy to me, so some nice plain standard plates were sought for hte replacement.

I completely agree - Chavvy is the word for them and they hold dirt and road muck in all the corners!

 

Flat acrylic plates for me with legal 3D font and are so much easier to clean.  👍

Just get normal plates. It's a gorgeous car without flashy stuff like "hey look at me number plates". Here's what mine looks like...

I guess yours came with those plates.  I need a replacement as mine is not quite flat.

Nope, those are personalised plates I had made and put on the car myself. Car came with the original registration plates on.
