As I wait - Got my New Front Plate.

So while I am waiting for my car to be built, I have been gathering the "thinks" that I need to make this car really mine (besides the payments).

So because I live in a "No Front Plate State" I went and got me one made from the country of my soon to be cars birth...

Check it out!

I wanted it to look like a real plate, but also mean something to me... if you need a hint, look at my screen name

Thanks you all for giving me a place to go and wish I had my car!

Nice! I'm sure it will look awesome. Wish I lived in a "no front plate state". I'm thinking about getting the GoMiniGo plate holder so I don't have to drill holes in the bumper of my CMS.

An authentic looking tag for a BRG MCS? Classic spoke wheels would look good too.

RJKimbell i am use to it, I am 6'1" and drove a YELLOW new beetle for almost 10 years. I have always gravitated to cars that have a story, a history. That almost always means I am in a CUTE car so I will take it!

I think I am going to love my very British looking car.

Nope. In WV Disabled Vets can get special Disabled Vet plates, but you are not allowed to personalize them :(

We are going with vet plates because given this cars speed, my long commute, and my foot made of lead, the vet plate gives me a little of a "get out of jail free" card. It has gotten me a few warnings in a state that gives very few.
