(warning rant!)

Ok, I had the GRM license plate frame on my track car that I took to the local hardware store today. When I came out, the plate was on the ground and the frame was long gone. Who the heck steals a license plate frame, I mean seriously and leaves the license plate?

You hit a chord with somebody there. Hopefully it is not one of us:omg:

you know that isn't a bad idea. But who seriously would steal a license plate frame? That's crazy.

It might have been a prank by a few kids, or somebody who really wanted a GRM license plate frame:?:

If you know the right people, they are free anyway. That's just stupid. May the thief smash his felonius fingers between a large breaker bar and some solid metal many times in his remaining years.

Maybe your car was too ugly for the GRM frame and it turned the screws out itself then ran back to Florida.

I refuse to put a GRM plate on the Saturn to protect Tim and Margies reputation.

Next time don't engrave your initals so deep into the back of the frame. It makes it harder to scratch out.

Yes, I am interested too:grin:

People steal these from the booth at events all the time, too. If you leave for a minute, just to get a drink or something, you'll come back and half of the plate frames will be gone.
