Vanity-plate-incited vandalism?
I've been reading the threads related to vanity plates, and have noticed quite a few references to cars being keyed etc. due to a vanity plate message pissing off somebody.
Is that really a problem to be concerned with out there? Does anyone have any first hand knowledge of such occurences? I've already ordered my plates, so too bad for me if it's a real issue, but it'll be too bad for the maggot who keys my car if I catch him doing it. Won't say what the plates say right now, other than it might offend owners of a particular brand of German sport/performance/luxury cars (who have no sense of humor). I'll post the pics as soon as I get the plates. |

Vandalism occurs for a number of reasons. There's never a good reason for it. People simply don't respect other people's property. You shouldn't let the hanging threat of jerks stop you from adding flavor to your ride.

Ha love it
The good thing about poking fun at BMW's is hopefully most of the owners are more mature who would sooner want to hear why you think your Nissan is better lol...unless u come across some punk who owns a 1995 318 series and thinks he's the neighbourhood king

If your plate says "IM RICH FU" don't be surprised if your car is keyed.

Like what TheGreatOne said, you're more likely going to get the negative attention from the kid who just bought an old, used 3-series and thinks he is from a music video. The guys with E92 M3's and upwards will just read your plate then blow your doors off.
