You will notice the thin bar code in the lower right corner...police depts have a new system (many are trying it out now) where they can cruise thru a pking lot and the system will scan both sides of the lane for stolen tags or tags on the wrong kind of car. Big brother IS watching

We have that except it doesn't read a bar code. It just reads the plate number and runs it through a system.

I have read that most cops turn the system off though because it's annoying.

Yeah, but I can legally cover that with a frame. I'ts just the "ARIZONA" between the top screws they don't want covered. We have a local dealership who evidently had alot of "illegal" frames left, as they are sending out new cars with the area between the screws totally removed. Like " [__] " Looks really bad. Not as bad as Earnhardt's in Phoenix who drilled through my FIL's Chrysler's front bumper to mount their dealership plate though (no front plates in AZ).

I'm rocking the FI one also. Everyone seems to enjoy laughing at the "Got Exhaust?".

*Frame.

I wouldn't mind a no-frame look either, but the obnoxious frames that the dealer puts on new cars left a scratch outline... so I might as well have a high-quality frame.
