You know I was thinking of that too. I will just keep it regular plate. But I really wanted 2UR-GSE though.

2UR GSE is not bad, because it's subtle and only enthusiasts will appreciate it. Those people won't vandalize your car.

You're lucky. I played around with the CA DMV website for a few months and believe me, in California everything under the sun is already taken.

I once thought about LOL MPG but also decided to not do it. Keeping the boring regular plate I currently have.

Do you think people would vandalize just because of the plate?

Hey guys I'm back. The last time I was here I more or less decided to pass on the IS500 that I had a deposit on. Long story short it came in and I decided to check it out still, the atomic gray looked much better than what I expected..... now the 911 is going back to weekend duty.

I'm looking at personalize plates in Iowa and the 2UR GSE is available. I was also looking at NOTAV6 as well to be funny. Might go with something else though.

depends where you live, what car it is, and what your plate says. Definitely doesn’t help you fly under the radar. All it takes is one rotten egg to pass by.

I finally have mine to a point where I want it...for now.

It's kind of amazing how much the paint appears to change depending on the lighting.

I am flabbergasted by how much the Enkei wheel look great in black and I tend to oppose violently to black wheels - That is a head scratcher to me!!
