Invisible Plates

[v_s_p_e_c]

saw this a while ago but still you have to hand it to them

[msnismo]

My mate actually had something similar in his 260Z.... was a LCD set up controlled in cabin... could change the plates to any combination you wanted in a second..... hence to say he had the setup imported, got away with it for quite a few years then got caught and slapped with over 8 grand in fines etc...loss of license for 3 years.... Stupid thing was after he went to court etc .... the police handed them back to him

Lol i was reading some replies to the video that said exactly that. Huge fines if caught also the bull run stickers on a gallardo you don't really need plates to be recognised

there is also a product in the states which covers the plates with a highly reflective chemical which bounces the flash from camera and doesn't show the plates in the photo. The chemical itself is invisible to humans. Apparently things like hair spray can have same effect, but not quite as good.

Lol... yeah the whole sticker thing kinda defeats the purpose!

lol.... I remember putting hairspray over our plates years ago when we were 17/18.... never knew if it worked or not though

[sh@un]

you do realise, all they have to do is increase the contrast on the photos and they'd own your ass

it's that translucent electric glass stuff

not bad..

Hair spray and all that crap doesnt work, not sure about what the OP's vid is using.

Mythbusters did a special on speed cameras in S5 S4 - Speed Cameras.

The only way the could avoid a ticket was..

Even the lambo didnt beat the camera lol

[WogsRus]

actually there is a stuff that wokrs, have been using it for years on my bikes and cars, it's a specailty thing from the US. It is only found in FEW Specialty stores. It has 3d prisim glass particles in it, you can feel the in the paint. When you spray it on, these seam to line up somehow while the paint dries and is fine, looks ok when dry, possibly a bit dull and not as reflective.

BUT when a flash hits the paint, it goes bazerk, you simply can not read the plate. I have not had a fine ever. I wish i had a pic of teh bike with the phot of teh plates.

UNFORTUNATLY, the bike is recently sold, and the car has new plates, so i need some more.

yeah, it's like the rear view mirror in my soarer which is some kind of LCD. at the touch of a button it goes dark electrically. same kind of effect actually.

^^ group buy!!

[Nathan_G1]

i dont have plates at all........so it would be good to percieve a registered car persona LOL

yay street runs

Another idea is to use the material in welding helmets that goes dark when a flash hits it. I tried this myself by placing a newspaper behind the window and then taking a flash picture. The material reacts fast enough that you cannot read what's behind the glass. Downsides are:

* I haven't seen these panels large enough to cover a plate

* Only works if the camera flashes (i.e. night)

i think thats the same stuff they use in the roof of the maybach, anyone else seen that?

[pablo101]

thats mad, imagine how many times u can speed through intersections, before they start an investigation on you lmao

[SKY 34]

I heard of using 2 boot solenoid, one to pull the plates down the other to pull it up. Since cameras here take front photos only...

[EVILTD]

All groovy stuff... but as we all know... nothing beats driving safe, obeying the speed limits, right?

[Freddy Kruger]

you need a common car like a white commodore or something... no point if its a bright pink r34 gtr with stickers or something...

[v_s_p_e_c]

There is a guy in the u.s. that has a site and makes them but he is slow at producing apparently accrding to his site. On the upside he makes them for australian plates too. obviously for those who want something cool at autosalon right guys? right? cough*

The only place i can see myself using this is on my commonwhore not paying for the lane cove tunnell. Theres my political statement
