wouldnt get the white rear plate though, then they will definitely stop you

yeah the law:
Post- January 1973
Number Plate characters can be either 89mm by 64mm or 79mm by 57mm gaps between characters must be 13mm for the taller characters and 11mm for the shorter. The gap between the two "parts" of the number plate must be 38mm ( 89mm tall characters) and 33mm for the shorter ones. No definitive font is given but styled characters ( for example italics) are forbidden. Note these regulations govern number plates FITTED after Jan 1973 but before September 2001, they do not relate to the year of the car.
If your car is newer than September 2001 then you need the correct UK Font.
Once again these regulations apply to number plates FITTED after September 2001 .So your car could be 1974 but it would still need to comply IF THE NUMBER PLATES ARE CHANGED.
It has never been legal to use screws etc to alter the appearance of the characters on the plate and the only other option when buying them is the EU emblem with a national flag e.g. Saltire.

white on the back is just asking for trouble.
loads of people over on e38 have had them for years without any probs then some people have been pulled, luck of the drawer i guess. the D banding wont help though
