Vanity Plate?

[Tomi Hawk]

Ok, I'm in the midst of registering my Honda Accord ..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v626/TomiImages/impaka3840a.jpg

I saved this 90,91,92, and 93 Accord from the junk heap .. and with a new motor,
and a nice new leather interior, along with a bunch a *spiffy OEM, JDM, and EDM parts,
she lives again .. :D

I'd like to come up with a photography related vanity plate .. or other ideas if ya got um.
I also golf (as I'm a certified USGA/TF) and the lowest round I ever shot was a 68 ..
Therefore .. *4-UNDER* was a thought .. ahem .. welllll

What else ya got? I live in a bloddy desert also ..
Any ideas?

Thanks .......

If you're allowed 8 letters on your plates, you can use CANONFAN, CANONKID, IH8NIKON.

I had the same idea until I realized putting anything on my car that related to photography was just inviting someone to break into it looking for my gear...

The state of Nevada allows 7 characters on their plates. if you'd like to look up some available plates, you can use this application on the Nevada DMV page:

Here's some available vanity plates for the great state of Nevada:
H8NIKON
NIKNSUX
H8 FILM
THEGRIN
APRTURE
POTN
SYCHEEZ
SHOOTME (Ok, it's photography related, but don't drive it in Los Angeles)
DIGIGRN
BLSBAYU
GIRILLA (a good plate if you're not attractive)
3M 3TI8 (Look at it in the mirror for the joke. Louisiana has banned this plate.)
TIH5TA3 (Banned in Louisiana but not in Nevada. Banned in Nevada if you use a 2 instead of a 5)

Some that were NOT available:

just inviting someone to break into it looking for my gear... Most of that generation can't spell, & probably can't read either? :D

My license plate reads: T CANTY

But, my license plate frame mentions my web site URL, which includes the word "photography". It's been 3.5 years now, and I've never had a break-in.

NIKNSUX

That one may not be banned yet, but I'd bet they would reject it if you applied for it.

Seeing this thread title together with "DigiGrin", I keep reading it as "Virginity Plate"

Or is my mind sick?

Never understood why someone would pay extra money for a license plate.

I like it. That's why. I even paid more extra than just that. I also have one of the special designs California's DMV offers (Mine shows Lake Tahoe). Half of my yearly car registration bill is for my license plate alone, but it's worth it to me. ;)

Geez we're just so weird in Arizona.

$500 to $800 and higher (based on vehicle value) to register...$25 for a vanity plate.

Wow! That's bad... If I remember correctly, my bill last June was about $120. Like I said, half of that (maybe even a little more than half) was for the vanity plate. Ours is also based on vehicle value. Last time I checked, my 3.5-year-old car is worth about $9K. My first registration renewal bill on it in 2005, when it was just one year old, was about $160, and it was worth closer to $18K then.

Of course, our Governator had a lot to do with this. The vehicle registration rates were one of his main campaign platforms. It's what got him elected, and the first thing he did after being sworn in was to slash them dramatically.
