What are you guys using for a license plate frame, if anything?

Currently, I'm not using one at all on the rear (no plate on the front) and I think it looks ok... anyone else?

Other options I've considered are:
- Body color from Bimmian
- Carbon Fiber
- Plain black stainless steel

What are your thoughts?
I bought one off of ebay that has a chrome finish and it says 545i on the bottom.

Here you go, here's how it got started! I wouldn't expect you Cali boys to understand!!! Im originally from NYC, so Im not a Texas native, but I can tell you Texas is like its own little country sometimes. Here's a little history lesson for those less privileged!!!

Texas Longhorns athletics programs include the extramural and intramural sports teams of The University of Texas at Austin. These teams are referred to as the Texas Longhorns (or variously as Longhorns, Horns, UT or Texas), taking their name from the Longhorn cattle that were an important part of the development of Texas, and are now the official "large animal" of the State of Texas. The University of Texas at Austin (often referred to as simply The University of Texas, Texas, or the abbreviation UT) is the flagship institution of The University of Texas System. The women's teams are sometimes called the Lady Longhorns, but generally both the men's and women's teams are referred to as the Longhorns.

BEVO is the name of the University of Texas mascot. The most-told legend says that back in 1916, either in retaliation over a humiliating loss to UT or in an act of pre-game bravado, Texas A&M branded a Texas Longhorn (steer not football player) with 13-0, the score of a previous A&M victory. In a perfect example of turning lemons to lemonade, UT rebranded the Longhorn. 13 became B. The hyphen became an E. A V was added then the zero remained as O. BEVO was born. Over the years a series of loaned steers have done the honors as official mascot for the UT Longhorns.
