Default Vanity Plate ideas...

Alright guys and girls iv been looking at getting a vanity plate for some time now and iv finally came up with something i thought was catchy and wanted to pass it on for readability and what ppl think of it.

5-OMAGNT is my brainstorm


please let me know if its understandable.... 5-O Magnet is what im shooting for.

That is okay until you go to court and have to explain to the judge on a speeding ticket what your plate means.

Why in gods name would you have to explain that? I have 11 driving infactions on my record all moving violations, not a one mentioned my plates: BIG TKT, HI OFCR

Unless other states are radically different the judge doesn't give a crap what's on your plate.

I understood your plate perfectly. I'm sure only Vette owners will understand it, maybe some 'stang owners. But I don't get why you want to glorify Mustangs on your Vette, you'll only make them more of a nuisance when they read it. How about EAT RICE.

I am pretty sure by "5-0," he is talking about the cops, NOT the old 'stangs.

I currently have COPTEAZR on my Z06. After the last round of mods and the car being ridicously loud, drawing way to much attention I am going to tone down the plate. Hate to give it up as I get alot of laughs, but at this point I may be pushing it to much.

That sounds good to me, cops like Corvettes, they'll pull you over just to look at it so don't worry about them. Can someone bring it to life in Photoshop???

I have WILW84U on my motorcycle.. when I got stopped, the cop chuckled and said:
cop: "hmm will wait for you.. cute"
me: "ya, but I wasn't waiting for you"
cop: "but I was waiting for you"
me: "well, I got here as fast as I could".

I didn't get the ticket.

haha my tag is "URLUZN" and I live in Hawaii. didn't help my cause in court when an officer issued me a racing on highway citation. my case was strong and the officers notes stated she didn't even see my car till "after" said race. the judge burned me cause I have prior speeding citations and said I need to learn a lesson.

my next tag may be "LINMUP" or something similar. the man can't hold me down.

I see it now, that one totally got by me. As far as EAT RICE is concerned, I was as serious as thinking 5-OMAGNT was a good idea, too.
