4D 3mm number plates with defined acrylic lettering
4D 3mm Acrylic number plates use laser-cut black acrylic characters raised 3mm from the plate face. Their straight edges and flat-topped profile give the registration a more angular appearance than rounded gel lettering, with visible depth when viewed from the side.
Character construction
Each character is cut from acrylic and bonded to the plate. The 3mm dimension refers to the acrylic lettering, so it is the useful measurement when comparing this finish with our 5mm version. The plate background, shape and any printed border remain separate parts of the design.
- Character material: laser-cut black acrylic.
- Raised character depth: 3mm.
- Matching standard front and rear pair: £49.99 before optional extras.
Choosing this finish
Choose 3mm acrylic when you want a raised registration with a defined edge and a moderate profile. On a Standard plate it gives a familiar outline more depth; on Short or Hex it lets you change the outer shape while retaining the same character construction.
Our 4D 5mm Acrylic increases the character depth. 4D Gel adds a domed gel face to a 3mm acrylic base. Compare those options if depth and the surface finish are your main priorities.
Build your front and rear plates
Start from a matching standard pair at £49.99. Standard shape is included; Short adds £5 per plate and Hex adds £10. A printed black border is £1 per plate. Flags or a green flash are £2 per selected plate on Standard and Short.
Choose a single front, single rear or pair in the plate builder. Keep “Same as front” selected for matching options, or set the lettering, shape, flag and border separately for each side. The same registration appears on both plates.
