One would think that that would keep much of the riff-raff away from you - giving you plenty of space - the problem is much of the population truly is unhinged so I'm afraid you're screwed no matter what your plate says. Even taking the Top Gear/Richard Hammond route of painting oozing green slime all around along with radioactive stickers plastered all over the place won't help.

Pretty much says it all...don't you think?

The downside of personalized plates:
If you're driving like a complete ***, you'll be easier to remember. I saw quite recently a white F-Type convertible with a vanity plate, and the driver was bad, and not in a "good to be" kind of way. Changing three lanes at once without signaling, with someone in that third lane having to brake to avoid being hit? I was aggressively unimpressed.

That's funny... a couple weeks ago a white convertible passed me on Pico going the opposite direction, and they too were driving like an ***-hat.
Must be something about white convertibles (sorry Foosh)

Anyone in California order the black and yellow Lagacy Plates and received them? I placed my order back in May and haven't received a letter or notice that that have arrived at the DMV. However I know that they have processed it because my plate number sequence is no longer available when I try to input it again on the DMV Website

Finally heard from NJMVC. One of my requested plates was rejected (FNFAST). I called them and the agent laughed..she said "FNWAY"!! Two of my others were already taken (FASTCAT and ITSAJAG). So next week my GD2BBAD plate should arrive. No worries Foosh, NJ does not have any stickers that I need to adhere crooked or otherwis! 
Guess we'll have to post pics of GD2BBAD as they get issued by state.
