Mine's gonna' say 'JOSHKILR' ... lol!!! j/k My wife has a vanity plate and they vary on price ... some of them cost more than others 'cause a certain amount of the proceeds go to benefit various organizations.

I believe hers was $35.00 in addition to what the normal cost is. I'm looking at getting one, as well ... have been for a very long time ... just now decided on the name I want.

I think mine is $35.00 additional a year, but I have a regular tag, with "SLP Z28" on it. I could be mistaken, but that sounds right.

$12.00 for personal florida tag and it varies for the collegiate tags etc. ususally around $35 for those plus the $12 to personalize.

I am getting a personalized license plate soon. It's going to be one of those "Support Law Enforcement" license plate type, which only allows me 5 letters.

I have a few ideas in mind... but not telling anyone. Don't need anyone stealing my new license plate

I found this page very helpful when getting my personalized tag. It is the DMV's page that will tell you if what you want is available or not. Saves you wasted time at the DMV after they tell you what you thought up is already taken.

Thanks 97Hawk.... that page is awesome! I found the plate that I want.

Going into Law Enforcement.... I thought 911SS would be a good fit.

Anyone else think so?

thats cool, but some douchebags who take things way out of context and like to make a fuss about things might get bent out of shape and thinks its about 9/11/01. which yes was a bad date in american history, some people just like to make a big deal about things. Like the kid who had gotmilf on his supra. some lady got all offended and the state made ordered him to get a new plate at their expense.

btw thanks for that site, found out what plate im gonna get!

Unfortunately I lost my cousin in 9/11, and I don't think it's any direct resemblance. After all, it is going on a "Support Law Enforcement" license plate, so I'd hope most would be like "oh, he's a cop", rather than "oh, he's a terrorist"

My plate renewal was insane this year. It was $75. Plus I had only ordered it 3 months before and I think I paid like 55 or 60 then. I have a panther plate that says WVE BYBY. Ohh well I did not think it looked as good on the plain florida plate.
