Hi
I just got what I thought was a Haro Lightning Bolt plate off ebay. It looks like a real one from the front, but there is no Haro moulded logo on the back, and the quality is not quite like the type 2 I have.
As this was the first Bob produced, would this be real? the seller assured me it was. Does anyone else have one?
I can post link to auction if needed.
thanks for help

Looks ok to me.
I seem to remember my one from bitd having a bit of a handmade feel to it and don't remember it having a stamped logo on it anywhere. I'll see if I can find some pictures.

yeah was looking for that thread :daumenhoch:
It looks the same as the pics, I was just unsure when I didnt see the haro logo on back, guess he didnt get to that stage by then.
thanks 2 both for help :daumenhoch:

i dont think that the rear of these plates were embossed with bobs sig, as the later ones were.
i think its a good un.

Having experience actually assembling number plates for Bob back in '79 like the one pictured, and I know it's been awhile but it looks authentic to me..
