Default Liscence plate frames :*(

Soo about 6 months back i bought these. http://www.americanmuscle.com/licens...e-mustang.html They look real nice at first but the lettering is falling all the hell out on mine, soooo advice on new ones or do you think i should try to fix it with perm marker lol. Ive fixed a few letters that i could with glue and the U on the back frame is with perm marker. The first one is front second is rear plate, if i dont buy new ones im gunna be fillin allot of em with perm. marker because they are all about to fall out.

Seriously, I got that same exact frame, and the same exact thing happened. The S fell off, then the U fell off I think. I sharpied it and you couldnt see the difference at all.

Once I got the blacked-out taillights I took the chrome license plate frame off. I really just looks tacky. I saw this purple mustang with one on it today and thought to myself "I'm so happy I took that **** off mine".

Lol yeah its kinda irritating, i tried to post a bad reveiw and they totally denied me. XD What do you guys do, just plane liscence plates? Also in Texas is it legal to only have rear back plates, because if i have any choice ill take it off, my mom says you gotta have one on the front and back but i saw a 60ish mustang with no front plate.

some cars can get away with it if you are unable to mount the plate in the front. But that's not your case. Its your car. Do what you want.

you could take the plate off the front bumper and stick it in your front window on the passenger side. i know of a lot of people that do that, but then again, i live in one of the states that dont require a front plate.

i wanna kill the person that leased my car prior to me owning it cuase they drilled plate holes in the bumper...gotta find a used white bumper in good condition.

I try

Seriously....I work in the ghetto. I honestly dont have time to mess with that stuff. Even if I did, I wouldnt. Im not going to be the man to make an american worker spend 60 bucks for not having a front plate attached. "OMG crime of the year! They dont have a ******* front plate so lets charge them 60 ******* dollars!!!" Nah not I. Keep the 60 and save towards a mustang....and if you have a mustang....save for a mod.

You can get good ones from american muscle, your best bet i would say is get some that are heavier metal, or something like that not the light plastic ones.
