it's more of a hit and miss... One thing's for sure though - if you want a plate with 8's in them, talk to a Chinese broker
I guess you can always call around?

It's a freakin' metal plate with a six-digit identification mark on it! Who cares what it has on it? If you want something good or cool, get a vanity plate!

wouldn't 168 MNY be better?
I was given the chance to take something from PKJ (PK-Jai). I passed it up because I was given a better choice later

its very random these days. Its hard to land a good plate. A few years back my dad was able to land tripple 8's, and we're not asian. Having a insurance broker friend definitely helps.

I think it looks pretty ugly. If it was plain white then i would have been sold. Just normal white plates for me. Custom or olympic plates look ugly IMO.

Its $100 for the initial application. If that slogan is available then the plate will be made in about 1 month. If the plate is not available, then they refund the $100. Every year its $40 on renewal.
Funkion- did you get insurance at the automall or at the automall dealerships?

if you're really that anal/superstitious about plates.
1. visit http://www.icbc.com/autoplan/broker
2. enter city or partial postal code
3. start calling each broker and asking what range of plates they have.
i just picked my plate from the insurance broker that works at the dealership. no headache.
