...cost cutting!...first, there's only one plate, then that plate is no-longer "stamped" but rather just a flat plate with silk-screened-on letters and numbers...cheap!
...and the Devil said: "...yes, but it's a DRY heat!"

Its about time; I don't even have a clue where my front plate is.
Vibe is gone and will be missed as I've gone country style

YES YES YES!! hopefully it won't take 8 months like the tint one did.*edit* oh poo. "beginning with the next registration year after the effective date of this amendatory Act in which the Secretary of State distributes newly designed standard registration plates for motor vehicles" anybody know when we are changing plates again?
None. Vibe is gone.

I'm taking mine off if it passes. I don't care . I see so many people now running around with no front plates, but I don't want to risk getting a ticket.

Plus it's one less thing to worry about.
