Usually I'd say I hate them with a passion. Saw the number plate holder on our new Phantom XR and to tell you the truth. It looked awesome.

Was planning to have pics ready to scan but you wouldn't believe it, 4 of 24 turned out, the film was faulty. PEAVED OFF TO THE MAX.

Anyway, picture this, the number plate cover looks great. We chose silver on purple personalized number plates and the Bryan Byrt Ford number plate holder covers the silver outline of the plate so you get this effective look of "purple | black | purple".

Looks really good. I'll post a close up once pics are developed and scanned, letters may be smudged (for obvious reasons) but you will get the gist of what I'm talking about.

No cover on the slim line plate on the front. That would look terrible. :rolleyes:

I hate them.

Stickers:

Over the top and obvoiuse ones look terrible - rip them off

However my current car (BMW 323i) came with a very unabtrusive and tastfull sticker that just says Moterline BMW. If was stuck on the rear window on the black stip across the bottom - so you cant even see it from the inside.

Plate surrounds

Same thing, if they were giving out plate covers / protectors instead of just surrounds I would keep them on but the surrounds they put on are usually just a plastic srtip and look cheap (of course they look cheap because they are).

My wife just got a new Camry Sportivo V6. it was silver with silver personal plates (black letters) Her car looked heaps better just by taking the cheap surrounds off. Silver car, silver plate edge, black plate border (1cm in from edge) then more silver then the black letters - look much better now.

My current car came with proper plate protectors WITHOUT any advertising at all - cool. (in fact someone stole the front slim-line protector and the dealer replaced it at no charge.)
