Help choose a new look number plate! (black EK hatch)

Hey guys, here's a fun an easy one for you.

Was thinking of changing the appearance of my number plate, currently it's a big white one with maroon letters, and a dealer plate frame which says Caloundra City Auto :lol:

So yeah. Have decided to give the 10mm socket wrenches a bit of a breather, and seeing how a new number plate will make my little cxi go much faster (hehe), I'm window shopping here:

Personalised Plates QLD

It's going to be 3 numbers, 3 letters (keeping my current plate, just changing the appearance), on a black 00 EK hatch, with black rims/polished lip.

I'm not sure whether it'll look nicer as a slim front and a normal rear, or slim front and rear.

Colour wise, I'm thinking maybe white on black or silver on black, or black on silver or white. Something simple.. no flowers, sunsets or football themes thanks.

So my panel of creative advisors.. what do you think? This is her:

ps. yes yes.. car needs to be even lower than the king lows. Patience! ;)

wow this car reminds me of my EG..

go with white on red :D

that car is ****ing hot! go with black bg red writing

Nice ride dude :thumbsup:

silver on black

fk that is clean as

silver on black ;)

So you are not changing the plate, just the colour?

Shame, as you could get 'NEEDROP' :D. I think slim front and full size rear :thumbsup:

FLYING

lolol

OLBLAK

:D silver on black...

or [BLK.455]

that thing is ready to go bush bashing :p

Thanks for the sweet comments guys! Not sure about red- won't have enough in the near future to earn a matching red badge.

flying bush bashing commenters- much love to you too lol! Classic. If I were changing the license plate numbers too, how about NTGRVT (anti gravity). Maybe get some longer springs. New project, Civic EK Baja!! http://tinyurl.com/yqqvkm

White on red - probably will skip this one. Looks alright, but in some countries (e.g. Singapore), white on red is a 'weekend license'. Usually these cars have cheaper rego and can't be driven on weekdays.. I know we're in Australia.. but.. well.. you know.

Red on black - Unique, but PPQ doesn't make them so I don't think it's legal..

Silver on black (slim front, full back) so far most votes- a strong contender..

Keep 'em coming guys!

Be a bit different...go with Black letters on a Silver background.

If you had gold badges you could go with either Gold letters on a Black background, or Black on Gold...sweet. :cool:

Nice EK Ry..... Black on silver would look good and go with your rims etc.

get black wrting wit silver backing,

might aswell personalise it

EKN-008

i think i want a new paint job. that thing looks hot.

Silver back with black writing would be mint.

Borg: Actually. lol The original badges were gold. Got the new one for the bonnet in black and silver.

Was looking at the back of the car the other day, and thought man that'd look good with black on gold or possibly gold on black. But mm. Thinking there's too much happening with the silver/grey on the foggies, the orange on the indicators, the silver lip on the rims and the red sticker etc..

Thanks everyone for the suggestions - at the moment, it seems like black on silver's (4) jumped ahead of silver on black (2).

Wow. Anymore votes? Btw panel, is everyone in agreement about slimline front and standard rear?

This car reminds me of ninjas.

ROFLMAO

I just want to say that your car looks mean man! I didn't know hatchbacks can look so tough LOL. Black car + black rims FTW!

Black background, so it blends with your car colour man. I would change mine but i already got white background and 80BAN is already taken (grrrrr........ the guy lives around my area too so i see it at least twice a week :(). As for letter/number colour i think gold, more classy than silver and you got gold badges at the back and orange indicators up the front.

why not buy a set of personalized plates
