Default License Plate Frame... YOUR VOTES PLEASE
What frame should I buy for my rear license plate... currently have a cheapo one with dealer name and am looking for something nicer. Cab is Seal Grey... can you get frames in that color.... where?

Can always go the Chrome route... lots on ebay for sale.

Any thoughts?

less is more, go framless! If you really must have one, get one of those in real carbon fiber.

I got a brushed silver to match the brushed sivler Carrera script on teh deck lid/ It looks good, not too flashy, not really an attention getter, just blends in well as part of the car, which is what a license plate frame should do, IMO.

My car is arctic silver, so I have a polished stainless steel frame with the 'Porsche' script. That way it's reusable with any Porsche model (should I ever switch in the future).

Go with the one that just says "Porsche" since Carrera is already on the decklid.
