Making Your Custom Front License Plates Count

By Andrew Foster


Being unique is good. The way people want it done sometimes makes sense, sometimes it does not. Everybody is however entitled to do their thing, as long as rules are followed. Same is true when you personalize everything you own and carry, including your car.

This is seen in everything they own, that they want personalized. These days, you rarely see cars without custom front license plates. This proves to be true, in places such as Reading, Pennsylvania. The fascination for vanity plates, as they are sometimes called, does not end.

Our fascination with them will never stop, although the messages, and the type of culture it gives off, may change. You sometimes wonder what drives someone to do this, or how important people consider it to be. That is understandable, since the rest of this country is pretty much doing the same thing.

They say that vanity plates, as these are oftentimes called too, are a way to tell the rest how to treat you. It is like having your personality as part of your car too, an extension of who you are. When you have a vehicle, it allows you to choose a letter or a number combination, sometimes both, for your plate.

They say it somehow is a way of letting the world know who you are. Especially on the road, while driving. Or whenever your car is parked some place where they are likely to notice the tag. People make it a point to make the plates so hard to miss because of what it says.

You are stuck with the message for a year, or have to pay added immense fees to change the plate entirely. Other than that, you have the privilege of paying an extra seventy eight dollars a year to retain that status on top of the initial ninety eight dollar fee for getting it.

Somehow, it appears as an indication of wanting to explain who they are through symbols and signs. It helps them predict and control what happens in their lives. It can boost self esteem, even though this comes off as sometimes egotistical. It is part of an identity people like to put on their cars.

Sometimes, they use this to attract attention. Like a twitter status, with very limited characters. You share it to the rest of the earth, and you get all these reactions, oftentimes already expected, depending on what it says. An indication of who you are, it is a good way to make a statement.

They make it like a slogan. Some are so witty, you can just wish you were able to think of the same thing. This will be since you get to decide what to put there for yourself. So much like twitter and facebook statuses. The creativity of an individual comes out when the characters are limited. So much as a way of sending a message publicly to the world. It displays your personality, so you have to make it count, if you are going to spend money on it. More than just novelty or being on the vain side, it became its owner corner of the art world.
