I always wanted a custom liscense plate, and even though my car will not see the road until at least march/april, my registration was getting ready to expire on it, so I figured I might as well. My car will probably see roughly 440rwhp, but it will still be "slow" compared to a lot of cars out there, so
I figured why not just call it like it is:

(RICEATR) nice, I miss my custom plate but Delaware offers black/white porcelain plates so I had to go with one of them cause they are so fresh and clean.

^ Those do look pretty cool. The standard issue Kansas tag is a light blue with dark blue letters/numbers... That might have looked
ok on the future sonic blue, but I think the "sunset" colors will stand out quite a bit, much like the rest of the car in this area.

They offered a couple custom backgrounds when I ordered my plates, but they were an additional $45 and I didn't like any of them enough to pay the extra

I've always wanted a custom plate but the cost of it every year always steered me away.
I can understand the extra cost to have it made the first time but to continue to charge the same amount every year afterwards is not justifiable.

Love the custom plates.

I just got this one a few months ago:

I believe it is different state to state.. Here you pay the 1 time extra expense of the custom plate, then just the regular renewing fee after that...
Funny story actually, a buddy of mine used to own a 2006ish Dodge Ram SRT-10, and he got a custom plate that read "8POINT3"... Well he happens to change cars about once a year (bad habbit IMO) and traded it in on a Nissan Maxima SE-R.. well he put the "8POINT3" plate on the Maxima, and when time came to renew
registration, it would have cost him around $60 to keep the "8POINT3" on the Maxima, or $135 to order a new, NON-custom standard issue plate for the car...
So now, he still has the "8POINT3" plate on a car equiped with a 3.5 liter..... I give him sh*t aaallll the time... "Nissan make v-10s now? or You having coil issues? sounds like it's only running on 6 of those 10 cylinders......

Yup.. Born and raised.. There are only a handful of Kansas-ians on here.. 94droptop and whty98 are the only ones (other than yourself) that come to mind.

Yeah I work with droptop at O'Reillys, I'm actually in Lawrence alot. I think we need to get a photo shoot after Cody(droptop) finishes his changes, and the s/c'er gets done on the cobra.
