German Plate on back

STi2Three35i · 08-26-2010, 02:40 PM

This might be stupid, but do you think theres a high risk of getting pulled over if I put a german plate on my trunk, and put my PA license plate in my rear window. Whats the worst that can happen?

Ahhh the german plate look so much better though. FUCK PA PLATES haha

That is pretty stupid. Reminds me of Civics with Japanese plates in windows.

As a matter of fact I saw a VW with a euro tag in the front.

I don't get the euro plate ? It's stupid , I don't see people from Europe rocking us plate ... Why ??

STi2Three35i · 08-26-2010, 03:14 PM

Why not? Its a german car, it looks sexy. And europe doesnt rock US plates cause they are ugly and dont drive american gas guzzling cars

Reminds me of people renaming their Acura Integras to HONDA Integra or a G35 to a "SKYLINE".

I like my car clean of any badges, extra tags, stickers, etc.

I even had them remove that stupid "X-DRIVE" badge on the side.

kushtrim · 08-26-2010, 09:50 PM

The German plate is a lot longer then the ones in the USA , do you think u can fit it back there

BKV122 · 08-26-2010, 10:08 PM

a deff ticket

Hazard83190 · 08-27-2010, 12:06 AM

I'd say don't do it.

found50bucks · 08-27-2010, 02:29 AM

terrible idea. but I say try it.

let us know if/when you get a ticket

bkrM3 · 08-27-2010, 07:35 AM

Trouble in philly? Probably not. Trouble/ticket in radnor or lower merion? Absolutely. Why even give them a reason to stop you...?

Even if it were ok to have a 'fake' tag on the back and the PA one in the back window you still have to worry about how easily it can be read. Could be a problem if tinted, etc.

I'd skip it. This ain't germany.

(I guess you didn't save any of those black DARE plates huh? Mine looks awesome...)

When i go to europe i see old style U.S cars like 70-80's cadillacs rockin U.S plates along with euro plates down on the bumper. But I've seen this twice since these cars are so rare here.
