I love that plate! I just received the postcard in the mail from DMV letting me know my plates have arrived. I had a front Euro Plate made to match it.

See how the hills behind the Home Depot matches? Also, the stores listed match the pic (Dollar Tree, HD, Marshals, Shoe Dept., AC Moore, and of course the Starbucks)

I get REALLY BORED when my wife goes out on a Saturday Night.

1 year $395.00

Damn! I am not sure how the registration works in TX since I am in CA. Here registration is annual and calculated upon the value of the vehicle. Additional charges are for personalized plates and/or Special Interests plates.

The values above, is that the annual registration or the fee for the 7-digit plates alone?

Unfortunately, those are just the TX 7-character personalization fees alone. The actual registration fees are separate and based on vehicle type, county of residence, etc.
