3D Number Plates

An Introduction to 3D Number Plates

3D number plates are a stylish alternative to traditional flat plates, offering a raised, three-dimensional effect that gives your vehicle a more premium appearance. The characters on these plates are created using a special gel resin that forms a smooth, rounded surface, which catches light beautifully and adds a subtle shine. This makes 3D plates a popular choice for car enthusiasts who want a sophisticated, modern look. Not only do these plates enhance the aesthetic appeal of your vehicle, but they are also made from durable materials that resist fading, cracking, and weather damage, ensuring they remain in top condition.

What is the Size of a 3D Number Plate?

3D number plates come in various sizes to suit different types of vehicles, from cars to motorcycles. The most common size for a front plate is 520mm x 111mm, which fits most UK vehicles. For the rear plate, you can choose between the standard oblong size or a square format, typically 285mm x 203mm, depending on your vehicle's requirements. We also offer custom sizing options to ensure a perfect fit for any vehicle, whether you need a plate that’s slightly larger or smaller than the standard. Our 3D number plates are crafted to meet legal size requirements while offering the flexibility to match your vehicle’s unique design.

3D Logo Number Plates

Adding a logo to your 3D number plate is a great way to make your vehicle even more unique. Whether it’s a brand logo, a personal emblem, or a custom design, our 3D plates can be tailored to include this extra detail. The raised, gel-like finish of the logo matches the 3D characters on the plate, creating a cohesive and stylish look. This option is perfect for those who want to add a bit of personality to their vehicle, making it truly one-of-a-kind. A 3D logo plate not only enhances the visual appeal of your vehicle but also adds a touch of individuality that sets it apart from the crowd.

How to Remove a 3D Number Plate

If you need to remove your 3D number plate, follow these simple steps to do it safely:

• Step 1: If your plate is secured with screws, use a suitable screwdriver to remove them. Keep the screws in a safe place if you plan to reuse them.
• Step 2: For plates attached with adhesive, begin by gently heating the adhesive with a hairdryer or heat gun to soften it.
• Step 3: Once the adhesive is warm, carefully slide a plastic card or a pry tool under the edge of the plate and gradually lift it away from the vehicle’s surface. Be gentle to avoid damaging the paintwork.
• Step 4: Continue to lift the plate evenly across its surface until it comes free. If any adhesive residue remains, clean it off with a mild adhesive remover or soapy water.

Step 5: Before fitting a new plate, ensure that the surface is clean, dry, and free of any debris, which will help the new plate adhere securely.
