Which sticker are you talking about? the plate? That is a full one-off Acrylic Custom Printed Plate. I am a Senior Member on the 4 (unitedvisionary) and friends with the owners.

Yes. it is a vinyl wrap. just like my sharpie IS. will come off clean when removed. GS Matte black is clean... too bad there's already one out there! you should still do it though....

Yeah the big L4p sticker and the black plastic license plate insert?

I have no plates on my car and wanted a cool insert instead of dealer plates.
