Debated getting a personalized plate for a while as it seemed my ideas were just too tacky or unoriginal. But put the order in anyways today...

What is feasible, and its cost, stronly varies with country.
I am only familiar with UK and a bit the US but they are very, very different to each other!
Ohio it’s an extra $50 a year and more options than in the UK (without spending mega money). my plate in the UK only cost £400 and didn’t require an annual fee. I had GH55 RAH - my initials and my ex-wife’s initials - obviously I didn’t keep the plate :)

Quite but the thing is in the US you can end up with a really nice plate at fairly low cost whereas in the UK you either have one which nobody but you understands, is miles from sensible but can be made almost readable as a word with spacing or fonts (13 for B, 5 for S etc) or you are into really huge sums of money.
A simple number like mine (bought 25 years ago) is crazy expensive nowadays or if it is old or genuinely spells a word without artifice some are fetching 6-figure prices.

I've got incorrect spacing on all my plates and (touch wood) never had a problem as they're all legal font and letter size. Love the plate by the way, I did think putting my GU12ZLE plate on the Taycan might be a bit of fun but as it's my wife's car she wants hers on there instead.
I only ever space the front plate, not the rear, and have only ever had a problem from an officer on foot patrol who reported me?
