VOA license plate

Your gen v shopping Ed? You better get a slate one
or you'll have to change your name. Red Ed has a nice ring to it!

I vote for Gunmetal Gray, but I am biased

Definitely a cool idea and would love to show support for our great club. But I could see some people giving up their current vanity problematic; especially if we have to drop down to 3 characters. Have to figure 2 or 3 out of 5 owner's already have a vanity plate that they won't want to give up.

If this doesn't pan out, maybe we could have a custom club plate frame designed?

I am 99.99% sure we do NOT have to drop down to 3 characters. All these plates have 6 and that's what we are going to get.

Okay - here's a few mockups - one old-style plate and one new-style. Not sure if they would let us pick the old one, so might need to be the one with darker blue and yellow trim.

anyway - take a look,

Ed,

What do you think about simplifying the graphic part little? Maybe just leave the flag and the VOA logo? Or maybe three Viper logos and a flag behind?

I like logo on the Illinois plate. So can it be any 6 letters or numbers combos
or does it have to be 3 numbers and then three letters for New York plates if not a vanity?

For CT you must show proof of being a non profit organization. Then you need 400 applications to get them made. No bond or anything else needed.

Have be a non-profit in CT with a valid sec of state number. Besides the DMV being a cluster @@@@ since the system upgrades two years ago so good luck.

I'll do it. If we do the XXXVOA format, could we pick the number? Could we also keep our custom plate number as an option if it is 6 characters?

I work for a library and have the organization plates. You get 6 letters that you can customize or 6 random ones. Maybe you could give specifics to the DMV to only do numbered ones like XXXVOA but i'd much rather be able to have the option to customize mine.

Example of the library ones, You have the logo and bottom text.

Any update on if this is going from mock up
to reality?

I think Ed should start a GoFundMe campaign. If we get $6K, we can design a plate and everyone who contributed to the campaign will get a chance to comment on the design. If we don't get $6K, there is no point of designing the plate.

Yep, perfect time for Ed to do it also since I just spent $85 registering custom plates on the viper

Yea, I remember when the NY plates went from a nice blue and white scheme to the FUGLY crapola colors they force on us now. It's like the state had a surplus of the paint they use on the pavement in construction zones and didn't know what to do with it. I'd like the Viper plate for sure...especially in B/W , might even put them on my "normal" car too! Lol

I'd donate but I need money for tires.
