Knowing When to Replace Your Plates
A replacement might be needed if your plates have been:
- Cracked or damaged
- Faded over time
- Difficult to read
- Damaged in a parking knock
- Worn through general use
Or perhaps there’s nothing wrong with your current plates at all. If you’ve bought a new car or want to change the look of your vehicle, a new set can be an easy way to give it a fresher appearance.

As the name suggests, these plates feature raised, glossy characters that add depth to your registration.
Similar to 3D, except these precision-cut acrylic characters create a sharper, more modern finish that’s particularly popular on newer and sports cars.
Traditional embossed characters give these plates a classic appearance, making them a popular choice for older vehicles and restorations.
Available for qualifying historic vehicles, providing the traditional black-and-silver appearance associated with classic motoring.
Made for displays, events, photography and car shows. Show plates aren’t road-compliant for use on public roads.
Classic Car Number Plates in Kent
Kent has plenty of classic cars on its roads, from carefully restored British cars to older sports cars and weekend projects.
If you’re restoring a classic, the right number plates can make a surprisingly big difference. Pressed plates provide a traditional appearance, while black number plates are available for qualifying historic vehicles.
You can also create show plates for classic-car events, exhibitions or garage displays.
If the vehicle is being driven on public roads, make sure the plates you choose meet the relevant requirements for your vehicle and registration.
Can I Buy Gel 3D Number Plates?
3D gel number plates are a popular choice, and they are road-compliant, as long as they still follow the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) regulations.
The raised characters have a glossy, domed appearance that adds depth to the registration while keeping the overall design relatively clean.
