Best/Cheapest place to get some reg plates made up

[matt3001]

Located either in Staffordshire/Cheshire or SE London.

Want to avoid online as I don't fancy posting my V5C off anywhere.

Do it online. Most of them print them in Ireland which get's around stupid DVLA rules. Some of them drive back across the border to post with Royal Mail....

Ah OK - so I can order online without sending any docs.

Is the quality half decent?

[surveyor]

I've used them a few times. No complaints at all.

I think the quality is very good and didn't have to send any paperwork etc.

I picked mine up on ebay, and they are far better quality that the plates that came from the dealership. The company details are tiny on the plate.

I've just ordered a set from these guys, hopefully they'll look fine in the flesh.

My order from platesforcars just arrived.

Front plate is fine but I am really disappointed with the rear one.

The colour is like a deep orange rather than the yellow that's currently on the car. I have just sent them some pics via email asking them to re-do it but very disappointed it got past quality control before dispatch.
