...Had been reading on here and saw that Dubmeister.co.uk seemed like a good place to order them from.

However the site seems to be down? Can anyone shed some light on the issue? and finally can anyone else recommend another site to get them from if dubmeister is down for the foreseeable future?

Thanks, Mark

Its working at the moment
Although you wont get any show type plates with UK registration numbers now

I've had show plates with UK reg number from here before http://www.craigsplates.com/ , although they don't list italian ones, they do german and french. May be worth contacting them see if they can help.
