Euro Plate Dimensions?

What are the Dimensions of your typical German lisence plate? the blue and white long version.

LxW and about what radius are the corners?

Suggestion...

HI

You can get a Euro plate made from the last post but may I give you a piece of advice ?
If you have a REAL Euro plate, after a while, and maybe that 77th automatic car wash, these plates will LOOSE the white circular portions that make up the figures 8,9,4,6 and 0. Same goes for letters like O or even D. The worst ones are 8 and 0 !

So try to avoid those numbers/letters when you have the plate made UNLESs they are guaranteed for a few years...

I asked this question some time ago in a different thread with no response. So maybe now:
Is a Euro front plate with the same numbers/letters & stickers as on the back US state issued plate considered legal in the US?
