Default plates! (just for fun)

When I lived in Illinois I had the plates below. But no one seemed to get it except me, so when I moved to CA I didn't get personalized ones. Anyone have any fun plate ideas they'd like to share for a 928?

We're not used to seeing front plates on 928's in California.

They are required, but I have removed them from most of my cars for the last 30 years and no tickets have resulted. If ticketed, I assume it would just be a matter of putting the plate on and having it signed off.

Charley is right.....all vehicles registered in CA must have front and rear plates (except some really old ones), without any type of "cover" over the numbered area wihtin certain heights, etc.....it goes on and on forever....

On that note I also do not have a front plate on mine....not on my Acura either....or several of the cars I had before that.....& charleys right again...it is a simple fix it ticket that is easy to get signed off!!

It's good to know my outlaw ways are endorsed by law enforcement types. Thanks Brian.

You drive in the fast lane in reverse?

I wish we had 'fix it' tickets in VA.

Front and rear plates.
Florida save the reef plates with a shark on them. Someone else on the board has the same plate but in reverse. 928V8 instead of my V8.928. Dot is a sharpie..

Just got my new plate in, so no picture taken yet.

POR$CHA

I was surprised it was even available. In NC, the $ sign does not count as a digit so my registartion reads PORCHA.
