Hey great idea. I like the frame, not a big sticker fan.

Is there some way we could leave some room so we can put our screen name/username/id on there? Maybe a white spot so I could write it with a sharpie? So we could say "Hey eskimo, I saw you..."

OK, I agree the custom license plate is a great idea. My vote is for silver or brushed aluminum letters on a black frame or the inverse.

I'd also like the rx8club URL in silver or white on a black background as a decal to put along the bottom of the rear door window or side of the rear window. Subtle enough that you'd spot it only when close up admiring the car's excellent lines.

I'd go with a different font. That is hard to read just in the picture, imagine how hard it would be for someone to read while the car is moving through traffic, or from a slight distance.

I agree. It would be nice to have a design instead of just the words. Do you have any artist here?

No doubt, that font will need to be easy to read as well as the colors combination. Sometime it's hard to find a good color and font combination until a prototype is done, but I'm sure a good artist with photoshop skill have offer good quality of design.

One thing I don't like to have is polish/chrome metal, it reflects too much light and I get annoyed following any car that had those in the early sunny morning traffic , therefore I do other car a favor and will not get any plate holder that will reflect bright light

Isn't this a GOOD thing for us then. It'll keep people who tend to tailgate far away from us.

I think they should offer both kinds of plates - that way we have a choice.

I like the idea of a specialty license plate holder. Stickers... dunno.

by the way... does anyone know a safe way to remove a metalic dealer sticker? Sales person said rubbing alcohol. Will that that hurt the paint finish?

If so... maybe I have a place for a sticker :D

I think a simple black frame with white writing would be best. Trying to match colors would be a pain with any other colors. Same for the font. The easier to read the better.

Yup... dealership "advertising" stickers come off with a heat gun. Just be careful not to hold it in one place too long and burn the paint.

So what's the deal here BOOST? I'd love to get one of these, and it's been a bit more than 2 weeks...
