    I went to Blade Greenhills kanina to buy california scents golden something ba yun.. Anyway I checked the plate covers. Meron silang makapal na glass, plastic with border with brand (ie. Mazda, Honda), plastic without border, and plastic with metal border.

    I'm buying the glass (bluish) this week, kayo? Meron na ba kayo? What are you planning to buy?

    Tinanong ko na din ung sales lady sa blade, sabi nila hindi naman daw, ang hinuhuli yata yung dark talaga. Ung green na glass kasi parang normal na glass ng dining table, ung bluish, well mas ok tingnan hehehe tinanong ko na din if pwede magpa-order ng clear na clear. Ganda kasi pag glass, medyo makapal

    My glass plate cover was untinted green glass and the traffic cops in makati still asked me to pull over. With some gentle talking, I got out of getting a ticket but I removed my glass plate covers with them watching.

    Even the green glass is NOT clear enough for them. You'll need to buy the clear plastic or glass plate covers.



    Moral: if you go to makati often, best to use CLEAR license plate covers or dont use it at all. Or in the least, don't use plate covers in front, rear na lang.

    Bakit wala sa options yung clear glass or plastic (untinted)? IMO, kahit yung may slight tint, hirap pa rin basahin ang plaka sa gabi, and I have 20/20 vision.

    yung akin bluish ang color ng glass plate cover so far wala namang sumisita mag 1 year na nakakabit ang napapansin ko lang sa may likod laging lumuluwag yung dalawang turnilyo cguro medyo mabigat ata yung glass plate cover.

    I'm using clear plastic plate cover with silver border. There is thread here that says that plate covers, of any color, are prohibited.
