I've used Craigsplates a few times for non-standard size plates.

I just found somewhere local, had them print motorbike/quad-sized letters on a full-sized plate, and cut it down myself.

Got mine from Demonplates, with the domed 3D text.

The std bumper aperture is 380mm (or 15") wide (VXR8 as opposed to Monaro).

I originally had a front plate made by craigsplates in 15" x 3.5" but the font was way too small/thin.

I then had one made by myshowplates who had to do it in their std 16.5" x4.5" "import plate" size. They agreed to bias the text to one side so i could cut 1.5" off with a tile saw to get it to fit with centred text.

I would suggest you carry a copy of the regs around with you so you can prove compliance if challenged.
