1 Puteri

Woo hoo! After more than 3 months my custom plates are here! I received a letter in the mail from the DMV on Friday, made an appointment online to pick them up, and this morning my new plates are on my car!

I had to affix the registration stickers in the car before I screwed the new plates on. I brought a screw driver with me because I had to return the old plates to the DMV.

I don't know what happened to two other screws for the plates! There were only two to hold each plate! I think I need to buy a better frame for both the front and back plates. The above picture was taken right after I'd screwed on the plate - at the DMV car park. mrgreen

My car with its new registration on my drive way. The only thing though, I wished it was a fancier car! Haha.

Enda mar, Pat. Mina bayar tahunan iya lebih mimit ari plate biasa.

Puteri said...

HI, yes, it does look good! Will look even better if I upgrade the minivan to a new model! Haha! So when are you going to get a custom plate of your own? LOL.

Yes, it did take a while to get the plates. The Dept. of Motor Vehicles was probably trying to determine if PUTERI was on their prohibited word list.

Congrats!

Douglas ;-)

Cat, aren't you going to get a custom plate yourself? Use some of that PPP money, eh!

Rita Ho said...

Very elegant, Puteri! Looking at your name now, I should have considered it for our sailboat - Puteri Lepak. :)

HI said...

I'm so cheap, I won't pay the DMV for a custom plate! LOL

Puteri said...

Rita, Puteri Lepak has a nice ring to it!! Haha, gives you the "easy life, no worries, no 9-5 job to go to" feel!

****

HI, that cheap, ah? Haha, good thing the custom plate is not that expensive .. nothing compared to the thousands and thousands you have to pay back in Malaysia!

Hi Puteri

If I were in California and driving around and then by chance I saw your car, I would wonder who it does it belong to and if she is a Malaysian. Now I will know! :)

That is a nice plate. Also, I agree when one has kids, a minivan is the vehicle of choice. My sister loves her van.

Take care, Puteri.

Puteri said...

Jacqui,

If you saw a car with 1 PUTERI on its registration plate, that would be me! :-)

If you saw PUTERI, that would not be me! I'm wondering who has that plate! It was already taken up when I tried to apply for it. :-)

Lee, we are only allowed 7 characters and half space. Does you car have a personalized plate?

Daphne, if I get a fancier car, I will transfer the plate to the new car! Hehe, cannot give away la.

Nightwing, looks cool, eh?! :-)
