I got my new plates in the mail today. I was kind of disapointed though. They are not stamped anymore. It is just a stupid decal. So now ANYONE can make a Washington State license plate if you want. I am pretty sure they still make them at the Penitentiary so they are not that expensive to make them correctly. Correctional Industries only pays $1.10/hr tops. I feel jipped!
Anyway, here is the picture of the install:

I miss my yellow plates. They looked good with the color. When they switched to the current blue and white I put em' on and stepped back "Man, that looks like ***" and put the cover back on the car.

They are not really stickers but it looks like the letters are just silkscreened on. I am going to file a complaint with the DOL. It won't do any good but I do feel jipped. I just paid $44.75 for personal plates plus the regular licensing cost. For that kind of price they should be done right.

Strange indeed, our plates came in and the lettering is stamped. Maybe you got a 'bad' plate? Did DOL say they are changing them? Usually they plaster that in the news and I can't find anything on a license plate change.

This is the reply from the dol:
"These are the new plates that are digitally mastered . We required by law to do all personalized and specialty plates this way.
there is no way to stamp them rather than digitally done.

What a buch of crap. What rcw? I know if CI still makes these plates they are done on a CAD computer before they are stamped. Digitally Mastered? What? These are license plates, not records.

It does suck about the plates, they made them before why are they changing them now? and only to personalized plates? I call discrimination!!
