9D Number Plates
9D is the deepest character build we make: the maximum number of bonded layers, producing a heavily sculpted registration for show cars, display builds and feature photography.
9D deep layered characters — available in eligible road-legal or show configurations.
9D is pre-selected in the builder. Standard oblong pair £59.99.
The deepest build we offer
Where a 4D character is a single 3 mm layer, a 9D character is a stack of layers finished as one piece. The result is a very pronounced profile with strong shadowing from any angle, and a weight and presence you can feel when you handle the plate.
Because of the material and the time involved, 9D is our most premium character range — and it can be ordered as road legal or as a show plate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are 9D plates road legal?
Yes, where the selected configuration meets our road-legal requirements. Choose Road Legal in the builder for a compliant specification, or Show Plate for off-road display.
Will a 9D plate fit a standard plate recess?
The plate itself follows the shape you choose, but the characters stand well proud of the face, so check clearance behind a tight grille or a slim recess before fitting.
Can I order just one plate?
Yes. Every product can be ordered as a front plate only, a rear plate only or a matching pair, and the price changes accordingly in the builder.
