Best place to get pressed plates? Was going to get them from PVS but the ques where so bloody long lol

ebay £18

I got mine from Beaulieu at the custom car show for £20 with bs numbers and postcode and there a lot better than the ones I got off eBay but the eBay ones ended up with faded letters. I did get them 4 years ago so they may well be better these days

Thanks to the missus trying to do a good deed, I've now got another job to add to the list . With me being held up with my bad knee for the last month my coupe has been getting covered in tree sap, bird s**t etc..So the missus got out the jet wash and decided to give the coupe a quick wash to get a lot of the s**t off it and stop me looking out the window and p**sing and moaning on about it . So 20mins later she sheepishly comes into the living room holding 1 of my badges off my alloys in bits. Straight away I'm upset inside as I know she held the jet wash far to close to the alloys, but can't say nothing then I'm in s**t . But I burst out laughing when I hear ''I didn't like them anyway and tbh why u got vauxhall badges on your wheels and the round lightening bolt on the car?''. So I need to hunt out some replacements and would like some opions on the 2 badges I've found.

Option 1

Option 2

 

[milo]

I would prefer to get these but can anyone confirm these would fit in the coupe turbo alloys? Not sure on the sizes @evocarlos

[Dave Gilbert]

but your cars a vauxhall why would you put opel badges on? thats just gay. hahahah

 

[milo]

I prefer the look of the opel badge

 

[5M1THY]

I prefer option 1 I think..
you should take one of the current ones off if your able and measure it the genuine ones are the way forward lol

 

[Dave Gilbert]

id measure and try n find some genuine 1s that fit.

iv got the new shape badges on the rear of mine and on the alloys there off an insignia.
but mine are vauxhall badges.

 

[milo]

Measured up and mine are 64mm

 

[milo]

So stickers is my option then.......

 

[Dave Gilbert]

i would measure the badge not the cap.

my badges are off an insignia but on my centre caps

i think the caps were like 62/64mm but mine are like 54mm

 

[milo]

I was hoping to replace the full cap for opel caps. The opel stickers I've gone for are 60mm

 

[5M1THY]

That's a shame but there still nice and match the rest now

''I didn't like them anyway and tbh why u got vauxhall badges on your wheels and the round lightening bolt on the car?''
