with you, I can never tell if you are being sarcastic.

basically, you pick 3 (top is your first choice) and enter them in the little boxes.

If one is already being used, they move on to your next choice.

my choices were:
WE ARE
WEREMU
MUZOOM (my car is a mazda)

Just bust'n balls

You folks obviously need some population growth so you can get to 7 1/2 characters like we have here in the People's Republican of California.  So much more flexibility with the added character plus the half space to split words into two.

yeah I know, but you know how message boards are. :-P

Normally, WI has 7, but the MU plate only allows 6 which totally crushed my dream. :(

Got mine on thurs. was disappointed. didn't get my first 3 choices, so they gave me a 5 digit number, with a small vertical "MU" and the right side of the plates. looks like a campus plate.

$8 of clear sticker paper, a laser printer, and presto .. a proper MU license plate.   8-)

I waited this long to do it because when I hatched the idea, my wife said she'd refuse to drive in the car with this plate.  I'm hoping she forgot that conversation.

The sticker seems to be affixed pretty well .. I suppose I didn't test it with a rain / snowstorm.  Maybe a dot of glue would be smart.

Why not throw a sheet of laminate over that side of the plate? That'll keep it on and protected from the elements.

Post by: mu_hilltopper on August 25, 2013, 11:46:29 AM
Well .. I suppose I could throw more of the clear sticker paper on top.   Other than expand the sticker area, not sure if that would help.

It's easy to print a new sticker .. I'll just do that if this one ever fails.

Well done.  Is there some law or something that might get you pulled over?  In California it wouldn't fly, it would be considered manipulation of state property, or so I was told by a colleague.  He claims the plates are actually owned by the state, and he may be right.  Just curious how Wisconsin is.  I like the artwork, well done.

Good strategy.  Maybe a few MU law grads can do some pro bono work for you in the defense.

As a follow up .. this worked for me:  http://amzn.com/B000S15KDS

You do need to cut a 2nd piece to lay on top of the sticker to protect the ink from chipping off.  Learned that the hard way.

Thinking of a new plate .. maybe BAZZ W or DONEDEAL...

Apologies for the necro, but how has your modded MU plate worked out so far, Topper?  Any problems from the fuzz?
