They have nothing for sale at the moment, probably due to a crackdown on illegal number plate suppliers.

It's no great loss though, the quality of the smiley plates he supplied were.......shall we say questionable

Brian, Ken's method of making plates is no different from any number plate supplier who uses the reflective on ABS plastic.

My set of plates from Ken are two years old and still look good with no delamination, the rear smiley plate is made using yellow reflective on ABS plastic, the front plate is white reflective behind clear acrylic, which is the preferred method.

Its becoming harder to source the smiley shape plate for our cars in clear acyclic, hence why some suppliers will use the cheaper ABS material as its easier to obtain.
