I could not be bothered to argue so like i said i went else where |

They do look great, but, they do seem to be a solid black plastic with evrything stuck on the fron, so as you say nick nick, may not last so long, only time wil tell. I was thinking of clear varnishing the edges, to try and seal them a bit, maybe clear nail varnish? Don't tell the missus! |

Thanks for the recommendation
Since I bought my car I've been unhappy with my rear plate, it's a normal rectangular one stuck to a smiley one, yes it looks as dodgy as it sounds. After fitting new LED number plate bulbs (£1.45 delivered from China for a pair!) the extra light showed the plate up, and also a few rust spots on the boot lid itself along the top edge of the plate. I ordered a new plate which arrived a couple of days ago. I've just been out and removed my old plate, sorted the rust out and fitted the new one. It looks cracking now Old one. New one.
