Yeah you'd be screwed with that, they can only go on cars pre 1968 or something round that time.

Anyway this thread has got me looking subconsciously obviously because yesterday in manchester i saw R5 ANY on a basic b5 audi, but that would make RS4 NY. So that got me thinking you could go for R5 A-- with the last two being your initials.

Just a thought!

Cheers guys, only get to drive it at weekend at the moment and thats a blast up the M8 to my girlfriends, i know the spacing is illegal but have seen some right dodgy ones on the road so hopefully plod will ignore me.

They certainly cant miss me with that colour,lol

I did actually think the spacing was a bit proud lol why did you go for it, I think it looks just as good standard

Lookin' well sweet!

I think that the plate would look much better with standard spacing though. It kind of looks like you are trying to do something when you don't need to. You want people to see the OMG after the RS04 part because that's what you are saying essentially.

But otherwise, car looks fantastic I have to say.

I went with R5 plate also - less letters/numbers than the rs04 plates.

Yeah, i kinda see what you mean about the spacing, maybe should have done it a bit like RS04 O M G or as you say RS04OMG.

Will leave it for now though thanks for the input.
