Replacement Bevel Number Plates
Need to replace a damaged, lost or worn bevel plate? We make like-for-like replacements in the correct legal format, using the same high-quality diamond-cut bevel finish from our range.
Damaged character edges or backing
If a character's edge has chipped or the backing plate is damaged, a new plate is the fix. If it's ours and you believe it's a manufacturing fault, contact us and we'll assess it.
Replacing a lost front or rear plate
Order just the one you've lost, in the size of the plate you're keeping.
Matching the edge profile on a single replacement
Order a single front or rear plate and we'll match it to our own bevel profile. An exact match to another maker's bevelled plate isn't guaranteed, as edge angle and depth vary between suppliers.
Correcting illegal spacing or upgrading from printed plates
We can only make your registration in the correct legal layout, so a replacement may look different from a non-compliant original. You can switch from printed to bevel, or to another finish, without telling the DVLA, as long as the registration itself isn't changing.
Know the difference
Diamond-Cut Number Plates — The Bevelled Edge Explained
Bevel — also called bevelled or diamond-cut — characters are acrylic, cut with an angled edge rather than a flat or domed one. The angled edge catches light differently depending on the viewing angle, giving a faceted look.
It's one of our premium styles — only 5D is priced higher.

Legal information
Are Bevelled Number Plates Legal?
Yes, when made correctly: solid black, non-reflective characters at the legal size and spacing, on the correct reflective background, with the required supplier and British Standard markings.
This is separate from the DVSA MOT check, which looks at condition, legibility, security and fitting.
