Arrow Front Plate or Not?

After only 3 opinions from the Lounge, I'm hoping for more over here...

I had a front license plate made for my Jeep last weekend at Super Chevy. I have been looking for a while but didn't want something tacky. I love the plate, but I'm not so sure I like it on the Jeep.

Marc (Thanks Marc) hosted a couple of pics for me with the plate on it. Let me know what you think...and be honest!!

Thanks for your opinions .

Jacki,

I think it looks fine We HAVE to have a front tag in VA, so we don't have a choice. Although I don't run one!!! I HATE the way they look on a Camaro.

But yours looks fine

If I were to put a plate on a jeep like that, thats the one i would choose, it matches the car with black and chrome. But if it were me i wouldn't have a front plate to begin with. Just my 2 cents

That's exactly the way I felt yesterday when my boyfriend put it on. I love the plate and I love my jeep, but together, it looks weird. I guess repetitive is what I think...you know how the hood says Jeep right above it. I don't know...

That's why I want honest opinions .

Thumbs up

imo, I see no problem with it. At least it's not some obnoxious statement or saying and it compliments the overall look.

I think it is a bit tacky.

Considering Jeep is already on the hood, if you take hood one off, then it would look good, otherwise, tacky.
