Yeah where'd you get it, i've seen someone else with one too but dont know where to get one. i'm guessing it's a whole new front plate cover cause the bird isn't transparent on the stock one obviously

you have to make it, no one sells them, some one should though!!! You can get clear plates from afterthoughtsauto

so you bought a clear cover, put an overlay over the bird painted it and then pulled the overlay back off to leave the bird clear? Nice.

Looks badass. Seems like a relatively simple mod too since all you really have to do is wire up the lighting for it.

Looks grate
Dam the police department we can’t drive with out front plates

man, i just thought up a good idea. Take the clear cover, then spray some of that lense black out spray on it (the stuff people use to black out tail light and stuff) just spray enough to make it look black instead of clear, then cover up the bird with an overlay or whatever and paint it, then remove the overlay or masking, then when you have the light off, the bird would look black instead of clear, but with the light on, it would still shine through. On a white car like mine, the bird looking black with the lights off instead of clear would look way better in my opinion.

ive been confused on this, red is near impossible to match so i do NOT want to try and find a clear cover and attempt to paint it red, do yall think i could just sand the original plate cover down to no paint and see if it would shine through then? has anyone done this? i dont exactly want to go out sanding the bird on the front of my car if its not gonna go to clear at some point..

The back of the plate is black plastic, so I don't expect that to work.

red is a total PITA to match... I''ve had a clear plate since before they were discontinued (and brought back) that I haven't painted yet.

I bought a plate cover from GM Direct and it comes black....can,t see through it.Had a body shop paint it red to match my '99 vert and looks good. BUT DAMN,that clear one with maybe a red neon behind it...WOW,wish I'd thought of that!!
