    Default New Plates

    I just ordered new plates for my Clubby. I can't beleive they were still available. I got RIP54D. I can't wait to get them on. That should s#$t a few Ford owners.

    I would have been very suprised if they were taken.... They dont strike me as overly popular or common plates?

    I'm sure there wasn't a big cue for your plates either. My plates are good for a bit of a stir with a few of my mates who own XR6 Turbos and a couple of XR8's.

    RIP 5 Ford? I dont get it?

    Only problem with personal plates is there is alot of people with bigger and better cars out there. It is embarrassing to have a quick car you are dissing come up beside you and mock you.

    It may seem stupid but it costs $90 annually instead of $450 to use all letters!!

    Ok, must be a NSW thing that you can make sense of the plates using numbers for letters...

    Us Mexicans down here in Vic have only just been given the choice of having plates with combinations like that so not very experienced with deciphering them.

    that depends if it 285RWKW or 285FWKW....
    but pop over to the ls1 forum and see how many of the boys and girls there have a minimum of 285FWKW and alot bolt on superchargers or twin turbos and leave eveything else for dead.

    i had a set of custom plates for my old HSV R8 "IJUSGOT1"..
    surprised no one had them and only cost me $450 and thats it..no yearly fees nothing....
    now the R8 is gone i wanna sell them and no one is keen....oh well just keep them and put them on a HSV in a couple of years...

    oh yeah i forgot...VYClubby...the bit about your ride on the right say "VY Clubport"....missing a "s"

    wow 285 kw....a tune and a crap exhaust gets these figures on ANY LS1 car. As for fords not being able to beat it, any tuned falcon XR6Turbo or XR8 will leave it behind.

    who gives a stuff if a ford rips him or not... these plates will stir up ford drivers on the road, so mission accomplished.

    My brother-in-law and I give **** to each other all the time cos he is a Ford man. Its all in good fun, just like these number plates I think.

    I had it on a dyno on Saturday and it made 312.4rwhp or 233rwkw. That makes it around 406fwhp or 302fwkw. That should frighten a few Fords.

    But that's not the point of my plates it's just a s%^t stir. It seems to work going by the replies on this forum!
