Default License Plate Frame

My car is SFP so I was hoping to get a matte black frame. Something clean and simple.

Anyone know any good brands or cool featured ones?

i bought a black stainless steel F Sport frame from carbeyondstore.com... the frame is peeling already. so don't buy anything from them. i'm in the same boat, i need to find a good F Sport frame.

As much as I hate to say this, Wal Mart actually sells a pretty nice one with an acrylic cover. It's made by Bell and I think it was $7. The frame portion is matte black. I am happy with it and it gets great reviews.

I ordered a SFP GS and am considering the carbon fiber LP cover.

My salesman made me a gift of these (front and back) from the Parts Department at the time of sale.

i need an F Sport frame, and it has to be durable... this one is peeling around the screw. they were $54.00 a piece, you think it would have been better quality.

I've bought many license plate frames from this site:

http://www.autoattire.com

These are what I have on mine, I had a set on on my old '03 ES, bought a new set for the 2010 ES, and transferred those over to the GS.

http://www.autoattire.com/lexus-3d-l...te-frames.html

I have the chrome on chrome with the plexiglass cover. You can get many different combos as you can see. Excellent quality, the ones on my '03 ES are still on it and look great.

This F Sport frame (especially the black version) is a piece of junk, it's sold on amazon/ carbeyondstore.

The first came with sand particles stuck under the paint. So I'm not surprise that it's rusting. I returned it and they send a second frame, same thing lots of sand under the paint. I returned it one more time and once again the third frame arrived with extremely poor quality. I got so sick of dealing with carbeyondstore that I just kept the frame. So save yourself the headache.
