Personal plates - where to get them made

So I've bought my personal plate on DVLA, but now I need to get the plates made. Any recommendations? Any advice on which look best?!

If you are buying them for a new car ask the selling dealership, otherwise Halfords is as good as anywhere for 100% legal ones

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Have a look at the pressed metal ones which are legal in the UK,
something different and give a nice 3D effect.

Got mine form Proplates (http://www.proplates.co.uk) with a nice GB and Union Flag design instead of the ridiculous EU stars. I'll need a GB sticker if I venture over the Channel, but well worth it to be seen not to endorse the pathetic EU.

RE: Personal plates - where to get them made

Why will you need a GB sticker, I thought the idea of having Eurostyle GB on the plates did away with that?

But he clearly said he didn't have the Euro-style GB plates, but opted for a Union Flag instead.

That's right, I opted not to have the EU plates as I don't intend to go abroad in the car; however, if you do cross the Channel unless you have the 'EU' plates then you do need a GB sticker.
