I've seen some cars around with lightly tinted license plate covers. I've heard somewhere that it's not the best idea to screw with your license plate, but since i have a black car, and i have to have a license plate on the front, anything to make it stand out less or make it look more classy helps...

Re: are license plate covers illegal?
I would call an auto parts store. If they are illegal they will nothave them in stock. If they are legal they will have them. Thats how I found out about blackouts in VAOriginally posted by kalaI'll have buttsecks with Richard Simmons!

they are illegal in illinois, and u can find them at any parts store.
I have tinted covers on m car, i think they make all the difference. Just makes the plate that much less noticable*Matt
Old people shouldnt use the internet.

Re: are license plate covers illegal?
Well I just googled it and they are illegal. Here is the law number 803.550 in paticular 803.550 2 B =
(2) A registration plate is illegally altered for purposes of this section if the plate has been altered, modified, covered or obscured including, but not limited to the following:
(a) Any change of the color, configuration, numbers, letters or material of the plate.
(b) Any material or covering, other than a frame or plate holder, placed on, over or in front of the plate that alters the appearance of the plate.
