My Jeep is pretty much all blacked out now and those orange plates are getting to me. What do you guys think about a custom plate like this to go with all black?

I have to say I like seeing the typical NY plates. One of my sons lives in Brooklyn.

And in full disclosure, I would be on the other side of the bargaining table on those union plates, even though I like the colors.
Just saying.

Well in Ohio yellow plates are “party plates” so every time I see someone with New York plates, I assume they’re drunk. Also the ones you show pictured are ugly af (colors are fine though). But at least if you come to Ohio we won’t judge you!

Are you a sports fan? Looks like NY has some good selections that would go better with your blk out Wrangler.

Yeah, I'm a Yankee fan but I didn't like how the new york was in yellow.

That is not bad. Also some states allow the plate to displayed behind a plastic cover if that is the case with NY, you may be able to get one that is slightly tinted to reduce the color.

I would say that it will look good! I have a Florida disabled veteran plate that has the same colors, and my Jeep is blacked out too. Orange...not so much.

Maybe contact the DOT or whoever makes the decisions on license plates and pitch the idea of black plates. Iowa just started making "blackout plates" last month, pretty sure I'll be switching to that style soon! :rock:

I kind of like the original colors. Industrial / safety looking. I'd keep it.

I'm personally fine with the NY plates. I much prefer them over white plates and especially the older NY plates as well.
