German Plates

Post by chewy »

Have been thinking about getting a set, what are the best to get the pressed or just the standard type plate or are both illegal? Also where do you recommend? Cheers

German plates are all illlegal, because they're the wrong font.

Personally I'd go with the pressed plates, one of the best mods you can do IMO.

Bought two sets from this guy before,

Extremely fast and great quality, cant fault them!

lol, now you'll just have to play dodge the traffic cop in Durham :)
My uncle's a traffic sgt there and he looked at my plates and was like "those are illegal.... you'd get a tug for those"
my reply was "aye but my standard ones i'd get points for off the fashion police"
