Default Re: Restoring license plates

I had some 1931 Y.O.M. plates restored for the Tudor by Ziffel in Valley Springs. He sandblasted them and did some "body work" on them, then primed and powder coated. He did the numbers color first and baked, then did background and simply wiped the black away from the numbers before baking. He even matched the sheen of the original plates. They look absolutely PERFECT! Total for both plates -$125.

DMV here in California will give you hassles with if you submit repainted plates for Y.O.M. and they frown on repaired or clear coated plates as well. They inspected my plates and swore they were completely original! Fooled everyone they were done so well. They look fabulous on the Tudor.
