Is this a thing now? Is a new one for me that's for sure. Hopefully I don't have to buy a new one. That would suck, this shit is $120 now. |

It's a thing, that's why you should slice it up once it's attached so it would have to come off in pieces if someone decides to steal it. |

don't those things break apart anyways when you try and peel them off |

First your neighbors cut your ground wire in your engine and now they steal your sticker. Man....they really want to keep your Mini off the road. |
||||||||

Well it wasn't the Mini cuz that's still a work in process lol. And I actually did clean the surface cuz I scrape off the old one every year. I'm thinking that actually made it easier to steal. When I scrape mine off they always break apart so perhaps it was just a random act of vandalism. This happened at the grocery store Saturday. I was at the crossroads plaza at weston and 401. |

Weston/401 that’s why! |

Cheap plastic license plate cover should fix that. If you want even more 'security', use a longer bolt, and put 1-2 nuts on the inside ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Ya I've never had luck with those plastic covers. Always seem to break them somehow. Usually the front ones. I guess I'll invest in one for the rear at least. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
or just have no front plate! |

I've had my plates stolen at Scarborough Town Center. I think we got 407 bills for that car for like 8 years after we reported it stolen. Is there a point of really stealing the sticker? Once the cops run the plate, they can see that it hasn't been renewed, no? |

That’s why they are colour coded - quick visual inspection to see that you are up to date. Only time they’d run you is if they are following you waiting for you to do something stupid. |

Lucky they stole just the sticker. 10-15 years ago, someone stole my friends plate when she had just purchased 2 year sticker. So I never buy the 2 year sticker. I tried to take last years sticker and it would break apart. Pre sliced. |

True enough. 20 years ago in my fart can civic, for sure. My car now I almost have to beg them to pull me over. |
