California Black Plates have Officially Returned

[68X426]

After two years of increasing applications, the requirements were met and the CA DMV will start the retro plates production.  I have 2 sets on order.  The "black market" plates on my Road Runner will have to be retired.

Poncho, you can now order. http://apps.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg17L.pdf.

Blue and Gold, and Gold and Black are available too.

So I guess it's really happening, and it won't take 3 years to get them as it had been suggested before.  Maybe I should buy into this after all...

I wonder if 938 DAN is available in a blue plate?

I wonder how many people from Calif. are on this site?

[myk]

I am, but it's an added expense I can't seem to justify...

[johnnycharger]

 I am also but will probably spend that money on parts....

[el dub]

Well, that makes three of us. But I already have black plates.

Boo on me for buying an Arizona car...

$50 isn't bad. It's what a regular vanity plate goes for anyway...

I guess I just gotta figure out what I want on the plate. Numbers? something witty (but then errbody will know its a "new" plate)?

I am curious to see pictures when someone receives one!
