Fake Plates

Hooy · 12-17-2011, 12:06 AM

Not sure if this is the right section, but since a 7 letter plate costs $400 a year in Texas, anyone know a good place to get a replica plate made? I want to use it at shows/meets only.

are custom replica plates of your registered plate legal?

No. But doesn't really matter in this case, OP wants it for shows only.

In Delaware, if you have a low number plate (1-87000, not 99999, no idea why the random cutoff) you can run a replica 1940s style 6x10" plate, but you have to buy it from a sanctioned manufacturer. That's the only legal scenario I'm aware of.

Thanks, I suppose the state and plate number are needed to identify the car, like area code and number,

?

The cutoff owes to the fact that the original porcelain plates were never issued beyond # 86,999. You may display a steel replica if your tag is # 87,000 - 200,000.
