No front plate

My vette is missing the filler panel and I live in a state that doesn't require front plates...thank goodness.

I know I can buy the filler panel but got any ideas for a fun or cool fake plate.

Just looks so bare right now.

You could go classic and get a USA-1 plate, a C4 Flag logo or a Chevy Bowtie.

Personally, I'd be more inclined to go with graphics than a counterfeit vanity plate.

I was leaning toward something vintage 80s like the USA 1. Or find one with the correct c4 vette flags

after thinking about it I take back my original post. Find an OEM style filler plate and get the vinyl letters (in chrome or black I think) to put into the engraved 'Corvette' in the plate. That would look best IMHO.

I went with C4 Flag logo. Better than the boring plate the PO had.
