What ruins it are liscence plates on front bumpers. That looks like sh*t. Thankfully here we don't have to have them.

Depends on the state you register the car in. If it's a two plate state, you take a chance on getting a ticket for not displaying both plates. I'm glad I live in a one plate state. I wouldn't want to ruin the front of my car by drilling holes in the bumper.


Mine looks like this only it's personalized.

Back ON topic, the current Ohio plates aren't too bad with the red, white & blue scheme.

$50? who's trying to rip you off? $35 buddy. Most states have charity and/or different styles. love PA for no front plate, although DARE wouldn't be as awful. PA standard plates are a huge improvement over the yellow a few years back.

I like Oregon's plates. I used to live in NY and I hated those new plates they switched to.

MA requires both plates. but i dont think they look too bad. especially the rear because it matches the tails and the spoiler break light

South dakota has the same color scheme. I agree, its a plain looking plate that blends in well.

This is the GA "Give Wildlife A Chance" plate introduced late 2003. I love this plate for its patriotism. Here it is on my now totalled 1998 4Runner:

no offense but I would never post my license plate number online. It's not very hard to find out where you live and steal your car. I'd post somebody elses plate though, hehe

Took my front plate off, been off for about a year with no problem. I like the Mass plate, its simple and red font with white background is easy on the eyes

I'm still getting used to it, the colors are too bold. I liked the old "dirty" ones.

I removed my front liscense plate only to find 5 holes in my bumper. 2 for the plate being straight attached to the bumper, 1 because whoever it was started drilling offcenter, and 2 more in the plastic part because they decided to put a liscense plate holder on. I liked my car without the plate on, but for some reason, like it back on too. I don't know...
