Driftracewake 22 Report post Posted March 17, 2014 Thanks... But I don't want a personalised one, just a standard issue plate in euro form... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yng_750 247 Report post Posted March 17, 2014 You realise you must lay for them as a personalised plate if you want to change what car a standard plate is on. Also 66635 is an awesome plate Sent from my GT-I8160L using Tapatalk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftracewake 22 Report post Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Yeah I understand how it all works, all euro plates are "special issue" from Personalised plates, What I should have said was I just want a euro plate that reads like a standard issue plate not a personalised one, IE 3 letters and 1-3 numbers.

yng_750 247 Report post Posted March 17, 2014 To convert you standard abc123 plate to euri it costs about 450 to be manufacturered by the plates people. If you get one and try to put it on another car you will have to make it personalised at a further cost of like 900. Pruces may have changed since i last looked into this Sent from my GT-I8160L using Tapatalk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piiiiij 22 Report post Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) Three letters then three numbers costs you $659. Upgrading any government issued plate to euro is $399. I have another plate (for that time in the distant future where I can afford another car) with my three initials then single digit month of birth and double digit year of birth, same as the government issue format. So if you were Barack Hussein Obama II, born 4th August 1961, get BHO861. Obviously that's only going to work if you're born before October and your name starts with J or beyond now.. Get a plate like this with a bit of meaning to you that looks completely normal to everyone else! EDIT: and if you buy a new one get a frame for it too, something like $30 extra. Screw the frame to the car and keep the plates in perfect condition. Makes it real easy to swap around with other plates too..

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted March 18, 2014 i think Antil33t got his govt plate on E30 done to wide euro style, now has it on a different E34 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antil33t 90 Report post Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) Yes, he did, If you pay the $399, you can keep it forever, and put it on anything for the cost of new plates, it was probably $15 bucks at the time, but that was ALL for the car it came off (giving it a new set of plates) Except it costs $200 to put it back to Classic Style. My Reg# is WW3666. I thought it was cool at the time. Edited April 1, 2014 by antil33t Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLee 35 Report post Posted April 1, 2014 http://www.plates.co.nz/prices/ Possibly $299 now? If so, its almost worth it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antil33t 90 Report post Posted April 1, 2014 Nah, Euro plates are $399. You can upgrade your stock plate to something stupid like red for slightly less! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLee 35 Report post Posted April 1, 2014 Oh yeap, cheers. I obviously didn't go far enough. Back to being just that little bit too expensive to justify. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
