I agree - I think every Prius driver I've ever met seemed to have a smug, self-righteous attitude about their car. And while I always try to yield to merging traffic to keep the flow going I never do for a Prius as then I'm stuck behind the idiot as they turn the fast lane into the max MPG lane.

How about FXXK Your Prius - I'm having FUN?

I have one of these. Great quality including the screw covers.
Do you have a picture of it? I looked at the auction site and there isn't really a detailed picture. This is a frame that I would actually put on my car. Just don't want to pay $50 for it before I see it up close.

Izzy,

I'll be lookin' for you. I'm in the Chicago 'Burbs too, and with that plate frame, you'll stand out for sure. If you're ever tailgated by a big redneck lifted Dodge, wave, with more than just your middle finger.

So I got my Mercedes OEM "Carbon Fiber" frame today. I thought it was real carbon but it's only painted on! Yeah it's metal and nice but almost $60 for a metal frame? Oh well it should look nice on there. I'll post some pics when I get it mounted later today.

That really sucks. Hopefully it lasts more than few months before all the fake carbon fiber peels off.

I just ordered two nice U of I Illini frames. I decided that I wanted to show some hometown support, and they were a lot cheaper than the fake carbon fiber AMG frames for $60 apiece. I can get real CF frames for half that.
