Sorry for delay been out enjoying the sun.
DMB graphics. Will report back when I have the plates - I have asked them to replicate two of mine.

And as promised here they are. Devoid (in my opinion) of a 'too modern' look that IMHO can spoil the look of a classic. Good job I reckon. What say you? Only lacking the sharp edges. But I can live with that.

Wanted the Honda logo added to each end the 'Guildford Honda' plate for a bit more on an authentic touch....even though compared to the original it's not 100% authentic because of that (but it could and should of been).....AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!! This game can get silly.    |

And I've just noticed that the edges on the originals were curved anyway.
Health and Safety must have licked in on that prior to 1990 then.

*Kicked in*
Sorry....
P.S - It is worth noting that both originals are the original original dealer plates. One is a 1990 and the other a year 2000 bike with a 1982/3 never issued (in the day) thus personalised number.
This restriction on logos and dealer text seems to be a legal requirement on vehicles produced and registered from around 2010 onwards. IMHO it should not be backdated to affect our classics. The law can be an ass.

That said.....these are technically 'show plates'.
Make no mistake though. This company is strict about you proving vehicle ownership evidence.
Thorough checks are carried out to ensure that you are the registered keeper of the machine and rightly so.

Just one more thing....
Do not be afraid to 'dirty them up' a tad.....but of course don't go too far with that......this should make up for the lack off 100% faithfulness to the detail found on some (not all) of the digits found on the older plates. The bend in the seven for example. Modern digital life is still sometimes rubbish - but we can try the best we can to replicate.

Thanks.
Just need to be careful not to fit them upside down.
Why is everything so hard?

What did you give the maker to reproduce them in the way of template etc?
Cheers
