Default License Plate Holder

I've seen many license plate holders that are like plastic casings.
They kind of obscure the plate.
Where can I get one of those.
Thanks

autozone, pepboys, walmart, target ... they're not hard to find.

you can get the clear ones, but anything with a slight tint is illegal and you will get pulled over.

depends on the state, tinted covers are 100% legal here.

but yea any place that sells a small amount of auto supplies will have them. V.I.P., Napa or any of the places Eklypse mentioned

i got a warning because a cop was trying to run my plates at a red light ... when i read the slip, it said " obstructed plate " ... that's the same kind of warning they give in the winter time when you have salt and snow over your plates. what a cock

Well, I don't mean obscure the plate like those anti-radar ones. I just want to replace the holder that the dealer has on, and I like those plain old plastic or acrylic cases that holds the license plate. I just think it looks better. I have a graphite coupe, and I don't want the car to be graphite and then suddenly a stainless steel holder in the back.

the clear plate covers get all faded and turn yellow.... look dirty.
