4D Retro Matt Black Number Plate

Why Upgrade to 4D Number Plates?

Standard printed plates are flat and forgettable. If you want to give your vehicle a modern, premium edge, 4D number plates are the ultimate upgrade.

Unlike standard plates, 4D plates use laser-cut acrylic characters that are raised from the surface. This creates a sharp, blocky depth that catches the light and transforms the front and rear of your car. Choose the subtle 3mm depth or the bold 6mm stand-out look, and our 4D reg plates give you a showroom finish that lasts.

Choose Your 4D Plate Style

4D Gloss Black (3mm): the classic 4D look with high-gloss raised characters. From £19.99.
4D Gloss Black (6mm): double the depth for maximum stand-out. From £29.99.
4D Matte Black (3mm): a stealth finish with no shine. From £22.99.
4D Matte Black (6mm): thick matte characters for a bold, understated look. From £29.99.
4D Domed (5mm): 4D acrylic characters finished with a glossy gel dome. From £29.99.
4D Domed (8mm): our deepest 4D gel plate. From £39.99.
4D Retro Gloss Black and 4D Retro Matt Black: 4D depth with a classic retro character style. From £24.99.

Are 4D Number Plates Legal in the UK?

This is the number one question we get asked. Yes, 4D number plates are legal on UK roads, provided they follow the correct regulations.

The confusion comes from “Show Plates” or “Neon” styles, which are not road legal. Our standard black 4D plates are manufactured to the BS AU 145e standard.

To make sure your 4D number plates are UK road legal, we ensure:

The characters are solid black (non-reflective).
The spacing matches DVLA regulations.
The plate material is durable and reflective.
Our supplier name and postcode are on every plate (a legal requirement).

When you buy from Num8er Plates, you are buying from a DVLA-registered supplier, so you can drive with confidence knowing your plates are MOT compliant. For the full rules, the fines and what the MOT checks, read our guide: are 4D number plates legal in the UK?

Cheap 4D Number Plates (Without the Cheap Quality)

We believe custom plates shouldn’t cost the earth. We have optimised our laser-cutting process to bring you affordable 4D number plates that don’t compromise on quality.

We use high-grade acrylic and industrial-strength 3M adhesive, so your letters won’t fall off in the jet wash or fade in the sun. From standard 4D acrylic to the hybrid 4D gel style, you get a premium product at a fair price.

4D Number Plate FAQs

What is the difference between 3D and 4D number plates?

3D gel plates have characters coated in a raised, domed resin. 4D plates use solid laser-cut acrylic characters fixed to the plate, which gives a sharper, flatter-topped raised edge. Our 4D Domed plates combine both.

Can I buy 4D plates in person?

Yes. Visit our shop at 133 Henry Street, Accrington, BB5 4EP, or order online and we will send them to you.

Do you deliver 4D plates across the UK?

Yes. Delivery is free on orders over £19.99, and orders placed before 1pm are dispatched the same day. See our delivery information for details.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed to switch my private reg off as I was selling my car, after searching on google I found num8er plates local to us, after discussing with Rauf what I needed to bring we promptly arrived, he took all my details I obtained from DVLA,  they were printed and fitted to my car (there was a small charge for fitting). His shop is split into 2 parts, plates & vapes. In the plates side he does 3 & 4D plates, they're amazing to look at.
In the vape side there were a good selection of phone cases & screen protectors, but he also sold parfum, I bought 3 for my hubby, just for wearing at the gym, 3 for £20 and the black did smell rather nice. We know where to come once he runs out!. Thanks Rauf for being so helpful, lovely chatting with you too. Julie & David x
