Vanity Plates

Post by RITmusic2k »

Anyone here ever had 'em? Anything clever or witty?

I'm thinking half-heartedly about getting a set for Carmen. The typical thing to do is make some clever reference about the car itself, but I'm thinking I might go more along this route:

Maybe it's a little too subtle, though.... I get the feeling that members of SS are the only people who'd really pick up on it.

I dunno. Other options could be HEEL TOE... that's not bad, actually... DBLCLUTCH? I'm on the fence with that one...


Any thoughts, comments, inspired suggestions?

The Civic one had me in tears and the guy was really chill. Not only that, the car was clean. No ricey mods at all.

Hey, be careful with the GOATSE one. A friend of mine knew a chick who had that same plate, and the state took it away. I'm just gonna say, they Googled it and found out why she chose it :lol:

I just want 'FFFUUUU', but I'm sure the gubmint would step in and say no :(.

I've also thought about 'OVR9000' or 'OVER 9K', but I'm afraid it would look like I was bragging about my redline or something :lol:.

It should look a little like this.. However I got it through the DMV so it is solid black... no star. and now it says that the combo is not availible! So either GOAT is now in the system as being occupied or it got disapproved.
