Default Showplates for Wagga - who wants em?

I know there have been some interested in getting a set of these for the Wagga show - finally I have details.

For those who arent familiar with them, they are a set of custom made numberplates which replace your vehicles numberplates for the duration of the show. Obviously theyre not legal to drive around with on your car though!

The most common thing put on them is your forums username but you are welcome to put other things on there i.e. model name of your car etc. Obviously no offensive material will be accepted though.

The text is limited to a single line and is available in a number of different colours. The cost for a set of plates with single line text (eg forums username) and your choice of colour is at the subsidised rate of $20, with many thanks to Russ and the admin team for helping us out.

I would like to see as many forum people as we can with these as they really do look classy and make your car look like its a showcar, not just parked on display. Closing date for them to be made is October 25th.

If you would like a set please list your name here, but remember that these plates must be paid for BEFORE they are made. Once paid for, they will be made for you and available for pickup at Wagga on Friday night or Saturday morning.

An example of the plates can be found HERE and HERE
This is what they look like.....



Getting a set:

1) Back2thefutura "back2thefutura" Blue

Austin, I assume we get 2 plates. Front and back? If so, i would prefer slimline for the front.

How do we pay for the plates?

Unsure of size details at this stage - I'll get back to you with the different options but I would assume they are all the one size.

And yes it is a set of 2.

Payment details are yet to be arranged but it will most likely involve a DD into an account before the plates are made, once payment is confirmed the plates will be made and then be available for pickup at the show.

They can be done in either size but it needs to be specified with the order. They are exactly the same dimensions as the Victorian Standard and slimline plates.

I will provide account details for payment later today once I have them confirmed.

Cheers
Russ

Do we get a choice of background colours, or is it only the text we can choose?

Im sure it'll be fine, but if you see a tired, stressed out individual wandering round looking lost and deliriously happy at the same time, it'll probably be me :p.
