Talking Number Plates

Dont know if this has been covered or not? I want to get some personalized plates for my new XR8 just gathering some ideas what have other people used or does anyone have any suggestions? Ive tried a few at the licensing centre but most are taken.

I'm looking to get some custom plates aswell for my BA XR8 and here's what my list looks like so far though I haven't confirmed if any of these are taken or not:

BAD BOSS
BIG BOSS
BOSS 5.4
BENT 8
BOSS V8
V8MISTRSS
BIG BOY
DARTHV8
MMMM V8
SUPD V8
V8 MUSCLE
BOSS 330
RIPR BOSS
5.4 BOSS

Feel free to add to that list people
