Default Anti-photo Radar License Plate Cover !!!

Straight behind: 22 Degree Angle:

Hey everyone,

Well I became a forum vendor now so wanted to introduce you to a great product we have made.

If you are tired of getting those pesky photo-radar tickets that we all know have been proven to be mostly for revenue, this is the item for you!

With my plate cover that I specially designed, the officers can see the license plate clearly from behind, but the distortion starts working even sooner then the mandatory 22 degree angle. I have many pictures and videos of my plate in action and comparison to the popular competition. (On my corvette, woohoo ) If you would like some specific angles or photo, don't be shy to ask and I will provide!


So go ahead and protect your privacy before the Man takes it away!


The plates are currently priced very low to introduce the plate to the market and prove it works, so grab it before prices are raised!

There is more info on my website so please check it out.



Once you are ready to order, I have provided an extra discount to all my fellow corvette forum members so you can order here



Please do not reply to this thread on your opinion on just obeying the law or other topics that do not directly relate to questions about my product or reviews after purchase. Moderators I ask you to delete any posts that do this. Thanks everyone!



My roomate has a C5, so I will try and take a picture of it on his car for you guys!

Here is the original post I posted on the C6 general, Maybe a question was asked on there that you wanted answered.

Of course I advise you to never break the law but we have all been in bad situations where its a must. For example, some of us have had to go thru on a red light because braking would mean the guy behind you would slam into you because he is trying to make the light and tailgating you. An officer would see the circumstance and ticket the guy behind you and not you, but unfortunately photo-radar does not have that discretion.

I have tried all other popular solutions currently on the market, and unlike their claims they have all failed. The spray does not work with new cameras and has been proven by myth busters to even make the picture clearer. The other plates work great at more extreme angles but unfortunately now they have cameras as close as 22 degree angles and the other plates just don't hold up. At the 22 degree angle your plate can be seen with everything I've tried.

When it comes to legality, This is legal in many states but in some states they have banned any type of license plate cover, so please look at your own states law and use at your own discretion. I live in Arizona so I have researched Arizona law and it is legal in Arizona, and there has been example cases to prove it. I am not a lawyer though and cannot provide legal advice.
The plate has sold well all over the United States and I have not received a dissatisfied testimony to date.

These have been shown on mythbusters not to work in the slightest. So what makes your plate cover any better? Check the episode out on youtube or somewhere.

Just curious, but is this a different product than the mythbusters tested? I haven't had the displeasure of dealing with the radar camera traps so I don't really know much about the products available.

Also, looking for your opinion on their tests on these type of items.

ABSOLUTELY different product! I test the product they tested on my site and show why it failed, the angle is way to great where it starts working. Myne starts working at less Then the required 22 degree angle!

I can obviously not gaurantee anything legally, but I know I have been thru at a red light (the scenario that I described above) and never got anything. We have also sold it to many across the united states and do not have any complaints.

As far as the area i live in is concerned, the cameras are all near traffic lights. Heres how you stop the camera from taking your picture and capturing your plate number.....dont run the red lights!

ANY type of license plate cover is illegal in Hawaii. I just don't run a front plate (also illegal and a $94 fine). I run a slightly smoked plate in the rear (taking a chance). The city (Honolulu) tried to set up cameras for speeders. Didn't last too long (couple months). Too many complaints. There is still talk about cameras being set up at intersections to catch red light runners. I have no problem with that.

We don't have any cameras around Detroit that I know of. I wouldn't want to run red lights anyway thats a good way to get dead.

Speeding on the other hand is something I occasionally do

I bought one of the others and it did not work.
I got busted for turning right on red. (they said I did not come to a complete stop before going through)

So to fix that problem I bought one of the ones with a motor on it that will flip the whole plate down with the flip of a switch.

It's understandable there would be questions about a product such as this and if you are interested in the product, you are welcome to ask questions in this thread or by PMs to the vendor.

Use caution, however, that your questions do not lapse into commentary that might put you in conflict with Forum rules on interference with a for sale thread:

So if you are going with the flow of traffic and forget where one of the cameras are, then you are busted. 11 over wont get you killed, but driving the speed limit when everyone else is going faster might.

BTW, I live in Phoenix. If you have a spare for someone to try out, let me know.


If you wanted to meet up I have no problem with doing it and we can try putting it on your car so you can see it and report back..........
