This works too. Moreso on those with the AMG kit than older models.

Euro plate just attracts attention so go with no plate at all.

European Plates in South Florida

I have seen a lot lately European plates here in Miami beach. I mean real ones on the back of cars. As moosejaw and some others saw at the meet at Starbucks there was a 335ci with it, and I saw the other day a 545 that had the trunk for it, yet had a Florida plate in the back window, and attached there was a Ferarri F430 the other day with one!!


Also, had to snap a pic of this poser S class. its a s430 with the amg exhaust tips put on, badged, and amg wheels, thats it, no brakes or nothing, the guy looks to be early 30's, what a homo. I see that car all the time.

what's wrong with that s-class aside from the badge? it looks good with quad tips, and is that a custom bumper piece between them?

kinda weird that ferrari has a france plate beginning with 355 although it's a 430. Anyways that I could have sworn that 3 series was actually a diesel we saw.

And also you can see in that benz photo the park I built 2 years ago for the city of Sh*tty Isles

i still say putting AMG badges on a car that isnt is being a poser, just cause you bought some ebay tips and probally knockoff AMG wheels doesnt warrant putting an AMG badge on. should I put one on my c230K just cause it has the AMG body? noo. Personally I feel the AMG badge should only be on a car with an AMG engine.

its your car do what you want. who cares what ppl think i can understand if you put brabus on the back if you dont even have any brabus parts on the car. if one of us non amg engine car puts amg wheels should we sand off the AMG emblem on the wheels b/c we dont have amg engine?

we all have our own opinions, and I feel that putting amg badge on a car is being a poser. amg badge on a wheel implies it was manufactured by amg. amg badge on a car implies it was manufactured by amg, which in this case, is totally not true. Its just my opinion that hey, if its not a amg car, dont freakin put it on. your more likely to get more remarks like "wow, thats stupid" than " damn thats hot "

EuroPlates

Ive been thinking about getting a Europlate for my car.
I am only gonna add it to the front of my car, due to the fact that the rear wont fit. $200 later and it will with Euro inserts. Not worth it to me.

I was thinking of getting a a custom one with Black background and white writing.

Ideas:
-Blk w203
-Mjbenz

HERES THE SITE WHERE YOU CAN CUSTOM MAKE THEM:

http://www.europlates.com/cust-ecc-german.php

Where else can i get them? thanks guys

BlkW203, I think that's an actual custom plate that one of the members here have. I guess it does not matter since it's Euro plates.

haha.. of course you can if it's the only lic plate visible to the Highway patrol. Your prob better of slapping this on under your actual lic plate. I've seen people do that. Or maybe car show use only.
