Custom Plates Or Not?

[FSTR32]

Hi. Im registering my car tomorrow and dont know whether to get custom plates or not. I have always liked the idea of them but are they too much of a wank factor or i guess it depends on what you get hey? Does anyone that has custom plates find that they draw too much attention the their car as I dont really want too much attention.

Also please post if you have custom plates and what they say

cheers

Which car is it?

[MissR34]

my plates are "RUNVS2" said as "are you envious too?"

its just funny watching people trying to work out what they say, attention wise..........honestly havent noticed, i mean people look at the car already. but havent got any bad attention (knocks on wood) from the plates themelves.

personally i think there cheesy as hell. big wank factor. on a show car ok, as its a nice touch but on the street it screams.

"look at me/my car im cool" =wank factor.

some plate are clever, and work well with 'TUFF' cars

but most people just follow everyone else with abreviated words and numbers.

saw one on an mr2 in a mag 4DHNYZ "for the honeys' haha almost threw up. definetly not someone i would associate myself with. kinda embarassing really.

but some people think its cool and others like myself think its gay. each to their own really.

if you dont want too much attention, i wouldnt get them. save the extra 100 bucks and get something more useful.

I'm quite happy with mine. Attention level hasn't changed at all. At the end of the day, you're driving a Skyline, so if some commo is looking for a race to prove his manhood, he will be there... revving his engine whether you have custom plates or not. Get something clever that you like, not just something just for the sake of having custom plates

i m not a fan of personalised plates , as its is too easy to be spoted and rembered

if u r flying past a cop u dont really want to make it easy for him to spot your plate

[NISZILA]

If you drive responsably, you won't have that problem

[SS8_Gohan]

what plates you thinking of getting?

[Munkyb0y]

personally i dont like them. there are some that are ok, sometimes, on the right car. but all the NV and D (the) and other cheesy shit really do make you look like a wanker.

NISZILA isnt too bad, as its not an abbreviated try hard sentence, and relates to the car. more suited to a gtr though. but then, thats my opinion.

i didn't read the whole thread but if its a skyline i dont think the plates are gonna draw anymore attention then what we already get

I have custom plates FEAR on my GTR but your already driving a car that will draw attention. I think the 400 a year in NSW is better spent other ways.

Man wtf? is there something wrong with your shift key?

i personally like personal plates and am getting some of my own soon,

that being said there are a lot of ghey ones out there and you should only get plates that mean something to you.

like was said before, dont just get them for the sake of getting them.

thats what you're buying into

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

If i get YPURV4 plates will my car dose harder?

[Munkyb0y]

just get IAMGAY ILYKCOK YNVME4 NVDIS1 IAMSTUPID and so on

[barnoon]

I dont mind certain plates but I HATE anything like 12NV or 2SEXY etc etc, when I see ones like that I just laugh.
