Go with the body color if you do not have CF on the rest of the car. If you do have CF, I would go with a CF plate frame to match the accent. We offer both for your car so let me know if you need any help

Remember no frame (and it depends on the type) means no barrier between your rusted licence plate and your cars' finish!

took my frame off yesterday but my plate has some bad dirt where it makes contact with the frame around the edges by the dmv stickers..i couldn't get plate clean enough, any ideas what product to use? i think it looks better w/o the frame.
Ok, got that out of my system!
