Chavvy or not?

Thinking about these plates for my ZS:



Opinions, please, peeps! I think they're quite smart and my front plate is almost coming off.

not exactly legal with the xpower badges, your meant to have the company who made thems name and postcode, the bsau stamp and if anything at the side its the euro thing, however if you would get dug up for it i very much doubt it, i had a scotland flag either side of mine and ritchy wrote under mine for well over 6 months with nothing happening, but i got bored n just reverted back to my MACHARGS plates in the end lol

Nice, use velco to stick them over your standard plates so when you get pulled you can appologise and take them off.

Personally i'd go for them without the text underneath, other than that they look cool

I had a Scotland flag at the side of mine and themgzs.co.uk at the bottom for my last MOT. No issues. New plates do make a nice change to the car's appearance.

Personally - not keen on all the X-power garb unless you've actually got some X-power performance upgrades.

R8NMG will become famous soon enough
Doesn't look chavvy to me. As said it is illegal to be using that number plate on the road due to the Xpower logo for starters. If you keep the lettering legal then I don't think the traffic officers will bother you too much. MOT time maybe different though.

My other thought was to put my websites URL along the bottom of the plate, but I like the S&R tagline.

If you get pulled by the police for having these on, youre very unlucky!Think they'd look better with no writing underneath though!
