Whether the cover you want is tinted or crystal clear, the answer is no, Trooper Steve said.
According to Trooper Steve, we don’t own our license plates, we technically borrow them from the state, and Florida law specifically talks about there being nothing that visually obstructs your plate.
“Nothing is allowed on your Florida license plate,” Trooper Steve said.
There you have it, the best way to show off your license plate is by leaving it alone and not putting a cover over it.
