It's relatively easy done by deed pole mate. I'd be honoured and more importantly you have my permission.

You'll have to have a slight variation on the username for this forum though as I'm keeping mine. May I suggest a few screws on your monitor to alter the name?

Cheers matt I thought I'd had a stroke and got all confused

I'm considering my options though. I'm into this screw thing. It's certainly a shit load cheaper than buying decent plates.

I'll measure it later for you mate

I actually cut down the plates myself as the ones I got made were shite

I bought cheap ones from the motor factors with no border and trimmed the sides. I think they look well.

To be fair if the OP is happy with the plate that's all that matters, everybody's different
Personally I like private plates, if good or even if 5 or 6 digit they can make a car look a bit better, I'm not into plates that are doctored but you still can't make out what they say, I only had a slight mod on my E6COS plate to make the 6 a bit more like an S.
Chop, trimming the plates is what I used to do, but that is classed as illegal now if you remove the code that's normally on the lower right of the plate.

I didn't know that... so if you buy a set of custom (but legal font/spacing etc) plates specifying that they are manufactured with no excess around the edges, will that number still be present?!

It's not 'trying' to read anything. It is what it is. You read it how you read it.
