Most folks like them raw. A lot of people in states that make you deface a car with a front tag leave them off and take the risk of getting ripped off with a ticket.

Do you have a Cooper or Cooper S? What color is it? Do you have the chromeline exterior pkg? It helps to know a little about the car to figure out what might look best.

plate

I have a cooper. 2002 silver with black top. I'm still new to the whole mini thing, but i dont believe i have the chrome exterior. Just around the grille ect. I have a plate holder in the front. I think it would look better with something on it. Perhaps the Mini logo in silver and black maybe?

The brushed chrome tag with the MINI Wings would look good (available at dealership) or a "Silver Jack" would look good. A Silver Jack is a Union Jack flag rendered in silver, gray, and black instead of red, white, and blue. You can see Silver Jack roof flags on cooperflags.com to get an idea.
