A place to stand!
A place to grow! Ontari-ari-ari-o! Plate looks like it's all flat, missing the debossed border and embossed letters. Is it still aluminum covered in vinyl? Are the numbers reflective? |

Sort of difficult to see the details with that (illegal in Ontari-ari-ari-o) cover over it.

Yes, it's a totally flat piece of aluminum with vinyl covering one side. I think it has reflective material.
I had to get new stickers for my vehicles because its almost my birthday (sigh) and I got new plates for free because the old one were delaminating. I think they would normally cost something like $59. Plates for trucks haven't changed. Changing plates give the car a new vibe.

Barf. Terrible design, and going completely flat just looks cheap.

I want a set. It'll make them look less obvious against my dark paint.

Someone on the radio stated they look like a Q-Tip box.

I'd get the new ones but I don't want to give up my 1/4" pile of renewal stickers. Gonna go for a record.

I like the new plates, but since my car is white I think the current white/blue color plates fits better on it.
BTW, @Guru Woodman: excellent Q-tips analogy! |

It seems that most new things just look cheap. It looks like a "knock off" plate.
"A place to grow" We're running out of room and housing is unattainable for young people. I can't wait to retire and put this shit hole behind me |
