Custom license plate

Absolute garbage!! Not what I ordered and very disappointed with this.. $74 dollars for a sticker on a plate that doesn’t even fill the plate, I will no longer be ordering anything.. the plates look absolutely ridiculous!!

Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:

We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your custom license plate. After checking your account, we noted that the submitted design did not cover the entire bleed area, which is why it left white edges around it. Please take note that our automated printing process prints products exactly as they are submitted in the final design. For your future orders, we recommend carefully checking the preview mode and PDF proof prior to placing an order to help set clear expectations for how your design will fit and look in print. You are welcome to make the needed corrections to your file and feel free to place a new order at your convenience.

Very well-made. Quality metal construction. Last after many many car washes.

I didn't know where to go, and VistaPrint came through

I wanted to make a "vanity" front license plate for my new car with my own design. I figured I would have to vet a bunch of companies that would do this through mail order and it would be pricey. When I searched and VistaPrint came up on my search results, I was very happy to be able to go with a company I already had confidence with. As always, the process was simple, good price, good turnaround time, and a great final product.

Too much “play” in print area

These plates are thick & sturdy and have both white enameled sides protected before printing, which is awesome. The challenge I had was 11 of the 12 I ordered printed off centre. Unfortunately, the design my customer needed had a 0. 5” black outside frame and when printed everything shifted by . 25”. It was exceptionally noticeable on two of the sides (ie whole image shifted down and to left). Next time, I will have the internal portion printed only & then apply the outside frame myself. To fix, I ended up trimming the 11 on the right edge by 0. 25”. Not the best but made it work.

Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the Custom License Plates thick, sturdy, and well-protected, but we are truly sorry for the shifting issues you experienced with your design's frame. When printing designs with tight borders, slight shifting can occasionally happen. Printed products are made on large sheets and then cut to their final size. Because this process happens quickly and in large batches, small variations can occur. The trim area exists to allow for these variations and marks where the final cut is made. In the printing industry, machines have a tiny amount of natural movement, which is why we always recommend keeping critical design elements, like a frame, well within the designated safety area and away from the edges. We think your idea to print the internal portion only and apply the outside frame yourself next time is a brilliant workaround for this specific design. For future orders, you can also utilize our online design preview tool to ensure your text and borders sit safely inside the recommended margins. We highly appreciate you sharing your experience and your clever solution with us.

Just what I expected!
