If you want to buy your loved one a car, go for it. (In fact, if you want to buy me a car, go for it.) However, if you elect that the finishing touch on your gift is a personalized license plate, don’t make it too lame – it ruins the whole gift, really.

For example, for the car you are planning to buy me, you can personalize the license plate to say any of the following and I am okay with it:

  • K8S
  • Kate
  • K8
  • 2COOL4U

Okay, so maybe not the last one, but you get the idea. Here are some that I have seen that are terrible.

  • 4QTPIE
  • FROMHIM
  • FORHER

Also, as a side note, though it doesn’t really apply here in Ohio where we have to put plates on the front and back of our cars, those airbrushed plates look stupid and trashy.
