Read a Japanese plate
Every real Japanese plate follows the same layout. Here is what each part means, so you can build yours like the real thing.

Really impressed with the quality of this custom plate. The print is sharp, the finish looks great, and it feels well made. The customization came out exactly as I had hoped, and the overall look is even better in person. A nice option if you’re looking for something unique and personalized for your car. Very happy with it.
Cars & Coffee every first Saturday of the Month. I love to take My Modified Mazda3 Carbon Edition turbo to share with other people and to see other cars. This magnetic license plate covers My true License plate, not for another to See. The Plate Looks GOOD, Adika is my Hungarian nick Name.
Better than expected 🤘
Loved it
Love it! Will be using it for future car events and IG to cover up my actual plate number.
Love it goes really good with my Tacoma
worked perfectly, looks amazing
Looks great and made well. I’m showing it off at cars and coffee on the weekends.
Came very quick and I love it. It’s so cool
Love it!
Love it!
Love it!!
It's a unique eye catching piece, probably one of my favorite purchases.
The plate cover is of great quality and attaches very easily onto the front and back plate. It’s also quite stable once in place- it stayed put through an accidental 20 minute drive (which I will be careful not to do anymore haha). I’m throughly happy with my purchase and am so glad I no longer have to edit out the license plate for photos anymore (: @vampirecasper on Instagram!
Love it! Magnets are very strong. Excellent details and designs the way I wanted them for my Supra and Skyline.
BusinessGlad to have something to cover up my license plate when taking photos VS my photos getting distorted by editing out the plate.
Just the right size. Maybe a hair off the original but nobody will be able to tell other then its looks awesome. No issues here. Highly recommended for JDM enthusiasts.
Love the plates will order again soon
10/10
Great quality, reasonable price, and fast shipping! Highly recommend!
Very quick delivery- Plates are great quality full with colors and character. Fits perfect with my vehicle. My state only issues one license plate for the back... This pretty much completes it. :) Highly recommend! Thank you- Cheers!
Looks amazing 🤩
Love it man
Pretty cool, convenient, it scratches pretty easily tho so dont keep it near other metals where it can scrape.
Great service, and love it.
I love my plate, I just wish I also had the option to have it embossed. Fast proof, and fast shipping. Securely packed. I'll probably order another one in the future.
awesome and kept to the word within 2 days i got my proof. exactly what i wanted. shipped quickly and looks awesome for all those car meets and photoshoots
Quality plate, will order another soon!
It looks amazing 🙏🙏
The process of designing my plate was very easy and streamlined. It showed up quickly and works great. The magnets are super strong, I will be ordering more.
Enjoying the plate exactly what i was looking for!
Perfect. I use mines for parking at car shows

Great process. Excellent communication. Plate is just what I wanted. Not a flimsy, tin-foil thick excuse, but full blown license plate.
The custom plates look great and had a lot of options to choose from. They also have a practical use as I put them on for public posts and no longer have to blur out the real plate number!
I do a lot of youtube videos and its annoying when I have to cover my plates or pixelate my plates every time when editing the pictures or videos. Order was simple and shipped very quickly. Thank you again. Im thinking about order another plate for my instagram username handle. Thank you again!
Perfect addition to a 90s vintage JDM!
Great quality product ☝🏼highly recommend
