Never...first thing I removed when I first got home.

 

Yep, I remove any add on ad stickers as soon the vehicle arrives at home, but I leave the license plate frame...

 

I've never seen an emblem from a Southern California dealer stuck to the back of a car. I've only ever seen them on out of state cars.

That said, even the dealer plate frame comes off of my cars right away. I just don't like having any advertising on my car at all.

 

I tell them that there will be a contractual $1,000/year advertising fee if they put them on. They usually leave them off after that.

 

Sure, I left the sticker AND the rear license plate frame on........for about 15 minutes after we got home from picking the TCH up! The plate frame wasn't so bad, but the brownish-gold stickers really looked ugly against the paint color.

I had also told the dealer that if they drilled the front bumper for a plate there, the deal would be off.

 

It was part of the deal... no permanent sticker or else -- the sales guy stood outside when the truck dropped it off -- he said the pre-delivery goons always put the sticker on -- and he didn't want the career limiter if the sticker didn't come off.

 

Our TCH wasn't on the lot long enough for the dealer decals. I wonder if they had enough time to put in the undercarrige frame plugs? Licence plate frame will stay on until I find something cool to replace it.

 

Plastic Frame. Painted it flat black. It was so cheap it was not embossed. Just like a painting. I will get a solid brass one when I can find it.

 

I didn't have any advertising on mine, but they did come in and show me their plate frame, and my current frame (a Michigan Wolverines one), and I told him I was keeping the U of M one.

Go Blue!

 

I have lived in CA, OR, and WA and have never seen either a dealer sticker or drilled in emblem from any dealer in those states...it is definitely a midwest to east coast thing.

I still have the dealer plate on, but like others I will probably change it to something more fun and personal when I find something that clicks with me.
