Which plate do you like better?

Thinking about getting a custom plate for my C. The standard Texas plate is a tacky bright blue so I think one of these simple black plates will look cleaner on my black C. Thoughts?

The bottom one with the larger star.

Even the regular Texas plate isn't that bad... compare it with this thing


I currently have the "Treasure the Chesapeake" plates on the smart, and am transferring them to the C when it comes in (this one is not mine...)

Haha i have those MD plates posted above they drive me nuts. I like more subtle one without the huge star. If it was the actual star of texas then i would go with it. Not that bootleg one.
