I used a handled laser etching machine to mark my data plate. Turned out pretty good. The bottom line is a tad crooked but it will have to do because I am not buying another one!
Make sure that your data plate matches your registration card exactly! Word for word including any punctuation and case. If they don't match perfectly, your DAR will likely not certify the airplane.
The original scribe lines leave the parts too long in the front. I trimmed another 1/8" off them.
Also had to cut another 1/8" out of the clearance holes for the stabilator spar.
No pic but I also had to cut additional clearance for the rudder horn and the vertical stabilizer spar as well.
