Mgrene Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I have been told that somebody on this forum makes new ones. Anyone who knows who it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navtrd Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Are you legally allowed to make these I saw a few sites but they did the sticker ones not oem one like above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mgrene Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Depends on the purpose [emoji41] but in theory I guess not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I think that would cause all kinds of problems here if they thought it had been tampered with, but I guess if you have an identical replacement and do it well they would never know ? Are you changing the way it looks or having an exact copy ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 IIRC didnt SRD do a one off plate with all the spec of a highly modified car on once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 IIRC didnt SRD do a one off plate with all the spec of a highly modified car on once? Fisherjohn’s car had one on it I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwilkinson Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 What's wrong with one issued by Toyota with the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 What's wrong with one issued by Toyota with the car? Do you mean why does it need replacing? When I looked into this, Toyota UK told me that they can’t issue a new VIN plate for Japanese imports. Only UK cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mgrene Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 Thank you for the help. Just received a new plate today :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Do you mean why does it need replacing? When I looked into this, Toyota UK told me that they can’t issue a new VIN plate for Japanese imports. Only UK cars. They can, they just need to order it from Japan. Takes a bit longer than normal that’s all. But....they don’t do metal plates anymore, it will be a security sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
