Black License Plate

I've seen a couple Tacos on the road with all black plates and white letters. Didn't see them on my DOT customized plate website. Anyone else seen these or know how to acquire? They are BA.

 

State?

 

IA

I was hoping youd say tx.. sorry dont know how it works there

 

Only problem is I've never heard of Dordt. The ones I saw said the county where that one says 'Dordt College'.

 

Was it an Iowa plate? Plates are state specific. Each state has a different assortment of available options. It doesn't look like Iowa has an all black/white letters option - right now at least.

 

It could also be an old plate. Here in AZ, you cannot get the reddish plate anymore, but I still see vehicles with it all the time. They changed to the plate with the mountains and cactus pictured.

 

I've seen some newer vehicle in Utah with all black plates and then white or yellow lettering. They're old plates you can't get anymore but you can transfer them from vehicle to vehicle. Could be the same in your area.

 

In California you can purchase "legend" plates. They are black with a nice yellow lettering. Go to dmv.org

 

Just went out for lunch and saw a Dordt College plate haha. Looked pretty cool, maybe I can find a plate cover that will go over it. Funny how that goes.

 

New Mexico has these. If I lived there I'd have one.

 

Does this count?

 

Montana has black with white lettering. Mine even has mountains on it similar to the ones on the gauge display

 

Are you sure it’s even an IOWA plate and not out of state in the first place?

 

Hey OP. I'm in Des Moines and have seen two different iowa cars with all black plates and white letters. Unfortunately I haven't gotten close enough to see if it is the college plate just covered up, which is illegal but I'm guessing that's the case.

 

My go fast car with the new Calif Black and and Yellow Legacy plate !!

 

Am I the only one that still like the white background with blue writing (CA)? Also don’t those plates cost every year to keep them?

 

Anyone know how to get 6 letters/numbers centered? been reading many reviews of the DMV printing them off centered.
