Just got these from Custom Solutions and have to say they are very impressive. 5mm characters engraved onto stainless plate - just got to weld them
onto the chassis somewhere. Is there a standard place to put them or would anywhere convenient do?

how do you weld stainless steel to mild steel? might have to rivit them.
I'm not impressed, they messed up the last 4 or 5 digits whcih are illegible

Is it acceptable to have an engraved plate welded to the chassis for the DVLA inspection?
It looks a very professional much better than my uneven punch attempt.
I don't see why not - it will be just as permanent as a punched chassis when its welded to a chassis rail.

Also rivetting would not be very secure as you could just drill out the rivets.
You say that like it's a BAD thing!!

Yeah...but I could easily engrave some extra letters into those spaces or change that "C" to an "0".
TBH I don't know what the SVA would say, just playing devil's advocate

...but they'd be able to find out who did it from the fingerprints
