Our license plates occasionally suffer some damage during production. We would never ship a damaged plate to you for full price, so we have decided to make them available for purchase at a discounted rate of $5.00 each.
The damage will vary by plate. The plate will either have heavy scratches, multiple light scratches, the holes may be misaligned, or the embossing may be offset from the screen printing. Please see the pictures for examples of the different degrees of damage. Stock is limited and not all products are available.

The black GEN 11 License Plate is produced as seen on the flying car driven by Caractacus Potts (played by Dick Van Dyke) in the 1968 musical adventure fantasy film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Chitty was completed in 1967 and registered with the number GEN 11, given to her by Ian Fleming, who wrote the novel the film was based on. The registration spells the Latin word “genii”, which means magical person or being. We decided to adapt this plate to standard USA plate dimensions (12”x6”).
