Default Opinion on custom plates??

Hi all,

Just a quick question of your opinion on the plates i may be getting.

I would rather the AA - 22 - AA design as its far cheaper (160p/a rather then 500p/a)

When i get my car back from getting painted and fixed etc (bike crashed into me). Im bolting on my turbo gear thus having a boosted AU.

The plates i am thinking of are MB 00 ST or TR 80 AU (as shown in picture).




I like the first one as it sort of works 2 ways.

- mmmm boost
- MB = my initials.

The second one is attempting to be

- TRBO AU

I like it, but just wondering what everyone else thinks?

Cheers Matt B.

The first one works better for me, but you won't go wrong either way.

I just did a quick (all bit it dodgey) mock up of what it might look like.



To be honest i dont really mind it :

i also thought of DO 53 AU (dose au) or something along those lines?

thats awesome man. I checked but PS 14 ME is taken :

PS 16 AU isnt (works for psi and i6)

Depending on the time i do (i want mid to low 13)

LO-13-AU could work?

Also PSI 16 T works.. too many choice's but hard to make the right decision!

told you what i think mate but if you put the word "dose" anywhere near your AU I'll smack you. That crap belongs on clapped out EA's.

SN33ZR or SN33EZA I reckon. MBOOST gives it away a bit too easy. Then again so will the bloody great um, "radiator" at the front.

i would go with mboost as it's the easiest to recognize what it is nothing worse than not understanding someones custom plates like my mate, not everyone takes you seriously after you explain why your ss torana has BOXWAR:P but the plates you really want are wyfbtr... but if i were you i would get a sticker that says "violence against women... Australia says NO!" or else it might not go down so well:P

On the subject of number plates, I've seen a white Supra with "4HUNYZ" as the number plate.
Worst.

Woman comes into my work has SKANK.

Her partner chose them and bet her that she wouldn't put them on her new car if he bought them for her.

She won the bet, lol.
