Not road legal mate i'm afraid, for starters not allowed any logo other than approved eu gb or scottish flag/ country flag on left. No surbaru or Nurburg ones. Also looks possibly like motorcycle size? You need to have one that is approved size, if yours is an import the ssize is relaxed slighlty.

Are you planning to stick these on the bonnet, because they look tacky enough

just go for the 3/4 size front plate, still not legal but look much better fancyplates do them......... Use the show plate constructor and use standard lettering, select the 3/4 size.....

on the number plate topic, those of us going to the Ring trip rmember that its only the Euro symbol with GB underneath that exempts you from requiring an aditional GB saticker

Flags and national identifying letters
You can display one of the following flags with identifying letters on the left-hand side of the number plate:

Union Flag
Cross of St George
Cross of St Andrew - also known as the Saltire
Red Dragon of Wales
The letters, or national identifiers, you can have are:

GREAT BRITAIN, Great Britain or GB
UNITED KINGDOM, United Kingdom or UK
CYMRU, Cymru, CYM or Cym
ENGLAND, England, ENG, Eng
SCOTLAND, Scotland, SCO or Sco
WALES or Wales

You’ll still need a GB sticker when travelling in Europe if you display one of these national flags and identifiers.

The flag must be above the identifier. You can’t have the flag or letters on the number plate margin, and neither can be more than 50 millimetres wide.

Euro symbol
If you display the Euro symbol and Great Britain (GB) national identifier on your number plate, then you won’t need a separate GB sticker when travelling within the European Union.

The Euro symbol must:

be a minimum height of 98mm
have a width between 40 and 50mm
have a reflective blue background with 12 reflecting yellow stars at the top
show the member state (GB) in reflecting white or yellow

You can always trim it down, 11mm outside furthest edge of lettering if you want it smaller but legal
