I'm getting a new plate that says BHOZAR on it

Nope, not getting a GP. I wouldn't want to spend a fortune respraying into a decent colour and tuning the engine to make it quick

Bought it.

Luckily, I got an e-mail from a Nigerian General who has $25 (US) to deposit into my account. As payment, I'm getting to keep 10% as my 'fee for services rendered'. Naturally, I replied with all my banking details and then confirmed for the plate.

As soon as my money and plate arrive, all I need to do is buy the GP. Do you reckon I should negotiate on price, or spread my new-found wealth about a bit?

All the best,
Andrew.

Decided!

Hi everyone - started this thread a month ago and since then I've built up a list of plates I like.

Main criteria really has been to stay fairly cheap (in the plates ££ world) but get something that works for the car.

I prefer the dateless stuff, so the one I've settled on is G9 WKS. Not far off GP Works, and a good price.

Think that'll look great with the car - as checked with others!

Thanks all!

Mick, if you haven't begged, stolen or borrowed to buy this plate, shame on you! It's brilliant!

Cheers Si - BTW slapped the leather care cream on on the weekend, great stuff. Feel much more comfortable now that I've protected them.

Bought some extra gloss polish to put on after the super resin too - can't wait, it'll look the mutts!!
