If you know of any good custom novelty license plate places, please let me know! I had an unfortunate encounter with a deer, and my custom plate took one for the team. I have NOT been able to find a replacement so far... I've tried online searches, local stores here in Durham, NC, nothing.

It's not a complicated design either. Just glossy black with the pontiac firebird's firechicken centered and in silver/mirror finish. I refuse to believe my now smashed plate was the last of its kind.

I'll post a photo later tonight.

Thanks guys

Thanks for the suggestions so far... yes even yours, alkemyst haha. Bruceb yours is the closest and I like it a lot, but it's not quite 100% with my original.

Here are some photos so you all can see...

The one I linked I believe is a decal/overlay kit. You'd just finish taking off the chrome on your current plate and replace it with the one in the kit.

Oh ok... I didn't see an exact match though, and plus as you can see, my original plate is banged up pretty bad. I could get a blank black plate, but it wouldn't be the same. It's hard to tell in those photos, but the original had the firebird cut out of the black plate, which is lined with silver backing and topped off with a clear acrylic firebird piece. So the end result is a surface that feels smooth/flat but had a 3D carved looked.
