License plates for film use...

OK, guys, you've gotten me intrigued. I'm going to try my hand at making one of these plates, just to see if it photographs well enough to be used in a close-up on film.

Would any New Yorkers or collectors be able to give me all the measurements (in millimeters) of the current issue "Empire Gold" license plate? I.e., the horizontal and vertical spacing between all graphics / text at every point. I've contemplated purchasing one for reference, but if I can do this little experiment for free, then that would be preferable.
