Default There is now a VicRoads Custom Plates website

Hey guys, vicroads has set up a site where you can design a custom plate and order the plate from, the url is as follows. I think you can also check the availability of the plate as well!!

http://www.vplates.com.au

cheers Paul

I bought plates on tuesday, through the site, and they came today! Its a welcome change for Vicroads to have prompt service these days. I bought 1 standard for the back, and a slimline for the front. Still debating if I should order a new slimline for the back. I think they look ok, but what do the rest of you feel?

lol nice plates gubas, I think the bigger ones look better on the back.

When I ordered my plates, they took about 3 weeks to come, done it over the phone.

Ha Ha. thats a ****er! Yeah, might keep the standard. More money anyway to order another plate. I never intended to buy plates when I was looking, just typing in combo's to see what funny things you could get. When these came up, I didn't think they would be still available. So I got them, obviously.
