What’s The Difference Between 3D and 4D Number Plates?

With various plate styles now available on the market, we are often asked about the differences between them all.

3D Plates

The most common question of all concerns the difference between 3D and 4D plates, with confusion surrounding the apparent discovery of the ‘fourth dimension’.

We can confirm we haven’t made any scientific breakthroughs. We still operate in the same way, continuing to use the all familiar dimensions: height, width and depth.

However, the term ‘4D’ is very well known across the automotive world, and it has become an industry-standard name.

Therefore, we’re here to illustrate how the name came to be, what it refers to in its design, and the way it differs from 3D.

What Are 3D Plates?

3D characters are made from a gel polyurethane resin.

They are dome shaped, which provides a more rounded look.

Furthermore, the gel offers a gloss-inspired aesthetic which shines brightly in the sun.

What Are 4D Plates?

On the other hand, 4D characters are made from acrylic.

The material is professionally cut with a laser, allowing for an extremely accurate finish.

This gives a more solid look, creating a bolder style due to its greater character depth (often 3mm or 5mm).
