Anyone else annoyed by the EU flag on the licence plates? They do not stand out in any way and furthermore it makes the plate look overall dull (I'd rather have the emblem-less communist-era plates personally).

I've seen a few people put stickers on them with the coat of arms or something. Do you think slightly painting that part would be illegal? Like making a small decal?

It's never a legal requirement to have the EU flag on your car, even if you're driving abroad. All you need is a GB sticker. No way am I having an EU flag in my car.

It cut/paint it off if I know for sure I won't get fucked by law.

I found a site that sells customised plates, white text on black plate, pre-EU or foreign country flags/abbreviations and all the fun, but I wouldn't personally risk it.

>>16360595
I have my political biases regarding EU personally, but that aside I just think they are boring and dull compared to having the flag on the plate. Of course, it won't make you different if you are in the given country, but still makes them a little bit more colourful.

Old Hungarian plates are probably my favourite in this aspect. Nice little flag to add some colour and the rest of the plate is simple and white.

It's not just "you guys sure are butthurt over license plates". Every single detail matters, what good to have an impecable car you love if there is that little small detail that boils the living shit out of you. Sure, to some it might not seem much, but personally I view it like an imperfection, just like I'd see a scratch or a horrible sticker on the car. If that bothers you, then any other small detail is just as justified.

We can have regional flags on the right end of the plate, which is breddy neat.

Wait, do you chaps on the continent not have a choice regarding the EU flag? I'm Britain, we don't have to have it if we're on our little island and only have to have a GB sticker of we do go "abroad".

The old plates looked so much better especially on older cars without that fucking faggy blue strip on the site.

Also, the font was cooler.
>>
>>16363900
If I'm not mistaken, the EU flag on the place is required if you want to leave the country in your car, otherwise you have to revert to the old system of oval stickers with your country's national code on it.
As for covering it, it would depend on your local legislation regarding that sort of tinkering. Here in France, you have a second blue band one the right of the place with regional number and flag, a lot of people use whatever region they want or like, some cover it with stickers or stuff like that, it's tolerated.

You sure about that? At least in Germany it fucking isn't.
Around here, the plate is treated like an official document and fucking with it in any way means you get in serious trouble.

Some funnybones do shit like pic related not knowing that there's a big chance it will get you a big fine. Also, your car isn't road legal anymore and in case of an accident the insurance won't pay a dime.

Some state court has ruled that the blue strip isn't part of the license combination though and therefore the strict laws on obscuring it don't apply to it, especially if there's no sign of malicious intent, AS LONG as you can still read the mandatory national identifier. I think the person in question drove around with a flag of the empire but with the D on it.
