Halfords number plate- Melted letters!?

Postby surfboardfiller » Sat 01.07.2006, 13:44

I guess the black plastic stickers shrank in the sunlight, due to the lensing effect of the perspex cover!?

Anyone know where I can get a 'printed' number plate?

IMO don't use "craigplates" of the internet, cos the yellow plastic disbonds for the same reason.

I'm on my third Hafrauds number plate cause of melting/shinking letters & number.

I've kept my receipt and keep taking the plates back as they must be 'faulty' :lol:

Strange, 'cos I assumed we would be ok with our 'garage queen' , but even after 7 months the plate is starting to warp.

Think the best bet is to get a metal one
