So does anyone if you need to pay the license plate change fee along with the $50? Or do you keep the same number as you have now.

The one-time $50 fee for the Park Plate and $18 to change the plate. You won't be able to transfer your current number/letter combination onto the Park Plate, you would have to choose a new combination beginning with "P" as seen in the samples.

Let's face it, the BC gov't knows that we are willing to pay the price to be unique like everyone else. What better way to show your friends at the country club that you're a pedestrian workaday grunt then to show up in your beemer with a regular person plate.

Hell, I'd be willing to pay the price.

If you are unique like everyone else, are you still unique?

I rather have smaller plates. The space on the plate is so god damn wasteful. You can chop off the bottom, space out the plate number better and still convey the same fucking message with the proper decals for dates and still have Beautiful British columbia at the top.

You can literally make an extra plate if you chopped off the bottoms of every three plates. Or just make them like the german plates



Is canada that boring that we gotta jazz up our license plates? GOSH!



I'm fucking salty as shit today.

Also trucks can run these. Just saw the plates today at my wife's office and one will be going on it . Can't decide if I want one for my car as well and give up my 666 plate haha

we inquired a few places in Richmond, seems like each place only carries a box of 10 for each character. so you better call quick before the good #'s run out. We found a nice lucky Bear number an London Drugs.

Also can someone chime in on license plate covers? I bought a set of clear ones to protect these new plates. It's not the tinted kind, just clear plastic. There seems to be debate whether one will get a ticket or not if the plate covers is considered obstructing its view.

Rolled into the dealership to order parts and laughed at all the peasants in their new M4s and M-sports with their poor people license plates.
Could have got the 332 if I was lucky but they won't let you pick numbers. They have to give them out in sequence. I was the first to inquire about one they said. Would have been good with the running joke of NA spec e36s being 332is M sport cars. Had to go with Porteau since its my favourite destination for a quick cruise.

This new icbc system is really making a noob out of agents.

Went to a couple after work to see if i could renew and get new plates as my policy is set to expire in mid Feb. Iirc, u can renew up to 60 days early.
The agents mumbled something about the new system and how itd have to be two transactions. They said if i wanted new plates itd be better if i come in on the day my insurance expires so that it can be in one go.

I havent changed plates in a while but ive done it enough to know it shouldnt be a hassle. I could tell both agents were kinda clueless and i had to get home so didnt bother to press the issue.

Will try again tmr...hopefully with better results.
