Were u get the plates and for how much? Are they the legal ones? Car looks really well. Im surprised how nice she sits for just a 40mm drop too !!

the plates are not legal (even tho they are GB font and correct colour) purely because they are pressed metal rather than reflective plastic!
i have some on my car at the moment and have not had any issues with the police, they have even driven behind me at times and done nothing!
i got mine from
www.dubmeister.co.uk and they are around £30 a pair!
ps- 15s with a bit of a dish and lower profile would look simply mint!

U see this topic came up before on another forum I read and an actual cop said that the only prob was that the plate wasnt reflective not that it was metal. But arent those ones reflective?
