I dont think the old bill like em but that suits the car down to the ground!

I made that plate with chrome / black vinyl. I'll be doing some with holographic/rainbow effect letters very soon, which are 99.9% camera proof!!! - and they will be pretty much the same price as normal plates. Dan Visteon's new car (his M3) has these plates already! He can confirm!!!

Let me know if you want any made up....

I used to have them on my RS1600i, no problems for about 4 months, then got pulled over twice in a week and the 2nd copper wasn't so friendly and fined me Ł30. Took the plates off after that lol
