Looks very nice much cleaner with no badges I think, you know a copper friend of mine said black number plates were only allowed on pre-1970 cars is that true?

Very nice work...

Not yet..... touch wood! Not in this car.

I had a tug a few years back when they were on a Lexus IS200 I had, but I got away without a ticket as I offered to change them before moving off and the copper was happy with that!

Same as a bloke a work with incorrect spacing (to make his name).  Correct plates in the boot were enough for the copper to stop him handing out a ticket.
