Not even the chain ones. Personalized tags mean much more.

I'm generally opposed to all front license plate frames, (especially in states that don't require front plates). IMHO less is better. I would suggest simply filling in screw holes in the front with color matching screws.

The rear is a different story. If you have a non-vanity license plate and no bumper stickers with sayings, a plate frame can be cool. Customized ones are easily available. If you have a favorite saying, go for it

^^ Hahaha my fav was 68.

Thats cool. Ive always wasted to make something like that but can tuck in at a switch in the car for the front and rear. You could get away from cops or make hit and runs :)

Front plates ruin the flow of your car. I never understood why people got chrome plates with the raised logo of the manufacturer. As if people haven't seen the logo 10 inches above it on the grile. Looks like overkill to me. If you state doesn't require front plates do this mod. http://www.nicoclub.com/archives/altima ... plugs.html I did it to mine because it was originally a NJ car and had the same issues as you. I used touch up paint to match my car.
