Need rear license plate holder advice...

Diversion · 05-28-2009, 06:31 PM

I want something clean and stylish.. Having a bare license plate on the rear end looks so unfinished...

Should I just get the 370Z holder that Zstore sells in black? Any other good choices out there?

I like those tinted license plate holders!
Those look pretty neat!
Also ModShack had a real nice one.
Try to look for the tinted ones!

I'm thinking about getting the black ones that say 370Z on them, but I really don't want to pay nearly 40 bones a piece for them. I hope they are high quality. I have had a lot of problems with license plate frames chipping and spotting. Right now I am still giving my dealership free advertising.

I believe AK370 bought some stainless steel ones for a big chunk of $$$

I did. Modshack recommended it and it's quite nice. not sure if you can justify the cost for a single license plate frame but I like it.

5 day old Z sandwich....Not pretty...>

That's billet aluminum and that has to be pricy, but it does look good. I definitely want something in black. I have to do front and back since I live in a Nazi state.

The frame described above is very nice, but not cheap! Billett aluminum made in the UK.

Auto Aesthetics

I just powdercoated mine to match my car..Should look sharp when mounted!

AK...It's a Very close match though the lighting here doesn't make it seem so...When I get the car back from it's plastic surgery next week I'll take a shot in the sun on the car. If you like it, we can work something out...

I have a real Carbon Fiber one. Costs about $50-60. Looks great.

Chupacabra · 05-29-2009, 02:50 PM

I bought that one, its steel, and has a nice rubbery Nismo logo. I like it.

Planning on a USC Trojans plate once I get accepted.
