Question Thoughts on custom plate for my LS430

Hello guys,
I'm planning on getting a custom plate for my Cherry red LS430.
Only thing is I have no ideas, so I thought maybe you guys can enlighten me a bit with some suggestions.

I thought of:

KINNNG
THE-KNG
CHRYLX

There are also some different styling of plates.

Appreciate you guys taking the time and helping, Thanks!

hmmm... not sure I've ever seen a cherry red LS... strange... and yes, the cultural version I think would blend in the best. Though it is hard to tell on these monitors/computers what the real color is.

Cherry red is beautiful! My personal opinion is that the plates with a very plain background and three letters [such as your initials] look the most elegant. You know - understated because your ls is understated.

As far as I can tell from my study of the Oregon State DMV website, there aren't any plain backgrounds, but perhaps the cultural one is best from the point of view of plain-ness and color. It says that the cultural plate is from a painting done by a NW artist. I can't seem to find anything about the painting - like if it is abstract or representational. Can't tell from the pic.

To me, CHRY in its various forms looks too much like a womans name. I thought it must mean Cheryl's Lexus. I think it means Cherry as in the color of the car. Duh on me. How about REDLS, RED LS, L430S.

CHRYPOPR? Ahem...license plate police might not like that one.
