Goto your local Ford dealership with your doccuments etc etc and then hand over some money and they will issue you with new VIN plates - takes a while, but its the only genuine and legal way to do it I think

Perhaps I need correcting, but I think they are stamped from behind, Ive already bought blanks from EBay Germany......Just not sure where to have them stamped....Even dont mind paying for new plates and have them stas long as the look correct....perhaps im being too 'Anal'.......but well thats me...to have the same car for nearly 20 years is quite an achievement......
