My partner has metal plates and I have the polycarbonate style. Both black with white writing. Hers have seemed to fade and oxidized badly, tho we have never really polished them in 10yrs. Mine started to fade after a year or so, but I have found this product ( GOLD CLASS TRIM DETAILER | Meguiar's ) to really work well on the polycarbonate. Have only used it twice on my plates and they have never looked so clean.

If you go the metal ones, at least it will be cheaper to replace if you happen to damage one of them.

Slim on Front, Full size rear no matter which material you go with.

I've got Polycarb plates, black with white writing. I wouldn't ever get any other option.

Yes it does, looks weird. But completely up to you.

Nope, as Sam mentioned that has been taken. Tried convincing the licence dude to give me her details so I could throw money at her but he wouldn't.

I think once its ordered you can't change it?

Just doesn't look very symmetrical.
