      Frequently asked questions
      • What are Shadow Number Plates?

        Shadow Plates are a type of 4D number plate made from two layers of black acrylic — one gloss and one matte — which creates a unique shadowed 3D effect. They're designed to give your vehicle a sleek, stealth-inspired appearance.

      • Are Shadow Plates legal on UK roads?

        Yes, our Shadow Plates are fully road-legal when ordered in the road-legal format. They use DVLA-approved fonts, spacing, and reflective materials, and both layers remain solid black, keeping them compliant with UK regulations.

      • Can I use Shadow Plates as show plates only?

        Absolutely. We offer show plate versions for customers who want Shadow Plates strictly for events, car meets, or off-road use. These are not legal for public roads.

      • Will the matte and gloss layers fade over time?

        No – our Shadow Plates are made from UV-resistant, high-quality acrylic that maintains its finish over time. They're also jet wash friendly and weather resistant.

      • Do the Shadow Plates fit all vehicles?

        Yes – we offer standard UK sizes, including short plates and square rear formats. These fit most vehicles including cars, vans, and motorcycles. Custom sizes can also be arranged.

      • How are Shadow Plates installed?

        Plates can be installed using industrial-grade adhesive pads (included) or via screw fittings. Both options ensure a secure and professional finish.

      • What's the difference between Shadow Plates and regular 4D plates?

        Shadow Plates use dual-layer black acrylic (matte + gloss) to create a unique shadow effect, whereas standard 4D plates typically use a single gloss black layer. The result is a more refined and stealthy look.
