Yes, the same vehicle that's sporting a Starfleet Academy rear window sticker also sports these front and rear custom chrome license plate frames. (Full-size image)
And for those not quite geeky enough, here's the etymology and meaning of the word "grok".
No, that's not my actual license plate number, but it sure looks better than munging out the entire plate, don't you think?

Great photoshoppery. Nifty plate frame too. :)
Do you know of any good tricks that get dried cedar sap off a car? It's getting to the point where I'm considering hitting my Civic with a texture gun and a coat of eggshell finish paint.
This is what we get for using half of our garage for storage. (The other half has Karen's spotless Honda Pilot.)

Re: dried cedar sap --
You could clay bar just the area with the tree sap. As luck would have it, I just posted about clay bars on GreenHybrid.com in answer to what a clay bar is and how it's used and all that jazz, plus links to more info.
The clay bar did the trick on removing dried sap, tar and paint striping convoy overspray from our hybrid, and even more meaningful, really cleaned up the Corolla (though it's filthy again...hazard of no longer being garaged except during the workday.)
If I had a beater, I'd just get my entire vehicle Line-X'd (spray on bed liner). Justin thinks I'm kidding, but I'm serious. When my mountain bike gets totally thrashed, I'd like to get its frame Line-X'd too. :)

Jonathan pointed out a Jeep at work today that was covered with black bed liner spray! Seriously! I'd never seen or heard about it before... and now twice in one day.
Thanks for the clay bar tip. I'll read up.

Line-X is awesome stuff. Justin had it applied to the bed of his F-150 shortly after purchase and it's taken abuse with no damage. We've shoveled topsoil, landscape rocks and mulch out of the bed as well as hauled bricks, landscape/paver blocks and of course our mountain bikes. I know boaters and the military use it for various applications, as well. It's even available in various colors.

Novel uses for LineX here (hint: it's being used at the Pentagon, as well as submarines and other military vehicles.)
