   I'm wondering where i can get some pressed number plates? As in, pressed into the metal plate, not stuck onto the plastic with stickers.
   
   Hope that makes sence lol.

   without getting in to the whole debate over plates. you will get pulled with them all but the polcie are more likely to let you off with the dubmeister as they quote the correct numbers and post code of where the plates were made. Ebay ones dont.
   
   spend the extra tenner and get dubmeister!

    That's why I didn't want to get in to the whole debate because different people have different experiences. I ran eBay ones on my Audi and never got pulled however my mare had em on his s3 for less than a week and was fined £60 and ordered to remove them.

    I hate comments like this, just because YOU got away with it, doesnt mean everyone else will, bad advice, false sense of security!! Some places police are more slack then others, its all down to your area

    Whatever you do, dont get them from craigs plates.
    
    Look crap, overpriced, slow postage, bad customer depatment.
    
    I ordered a front pressed plate and they came with a yellow GB badge which should be on the back, i complained hard about it, they didn't have none of it. £22.00 for a plate i don't even like, fail bro.

    On the dub site what does GB euro band mean?
    
    you can either select:
    
    *none
    *GB euro band

    none = just your reg number
    GB euro band = the blue euro flag with GB under it on the left hand side of the plate
