Default Reproduction Plates

For those of you looking for a reproduction plate but lacking the funds for the correct raised letter plates, bigcoolboo@yahoo.com (Nor), did a fantastic job reproducing my CA E plate. Its metal and cost 13.80 shipped. Thanks for the referral MoStang.

I think I need to dirty it up a bit since the car isn't getting any shinier.

Not bad for the price. A distraction for me is that they should have round mounting holes instead of oblong slots.

Those look real nice. Nor does great work and at that price it's hard to beat especially if The Platemeister is more than you want to spend.

Does Nor just do CA plates? Looks like excellent work.

Any plate you want. I have had him make 4 different MN plate pairs for me with as many revisions as needed to get it exactly right (at no extra charge). Comes to about $25 a pair with shipping. Does excellent work and the slotted holes vs. round holes is no big deal (about as a big of a deal as the embossment being an illusion vs. stamped into the plate).

The Washington plates he did for me were spot on.

I believe it is the Platemeister's site that says they do not reproduce CA plates anymore.
