Black and Silver registration plates recommendations?

[70-CA-Panel]

Hello,

My bus has passed its MOT yesterday, YAY! and I sent off the first registration documents.

So while I'm waiting for the reg number to arrive I've had a look at plate makers.

There are quite a few on ebay...

Does anybody have recommendations?
Have the plates held up without the black flaking off?

I was thinking of this vendor as the black has reflective properties.

I bought mine from sane guy. They're great for the money however if your after a period look then the reflective qualities get I the way of that. Not great for flash photography either

I bought them from the same guy on ebay last week

Quality was good, as said they are reflective

Thank you guys.

Can you tell they're reflective during the day?

Thought it might be a good safety aspect.
Might be a requirement in different countries?

Cheers

Have found excellent service and quality in m,y previous 3 or 4 dealings with them for classic number plates.

How have the plates held up from pl8s.co.uk?

Reflective when parked up might be good, but yeah good point about seeing a big bus...

The raised plastic digits ones on pressed Aluminium yellow/ black have been fine ~7years. The black painted pressed Alu ones I had on a car looked fantastic but have since sold the car so no idea. They lasted a good four years on before I sold it though.

Can't send a pic unfortunately as no access to photo hosting websites at work...
