Introduction

Not heard often is a cold plated vehicle, (just law enf. slang) where vehicle has been stolen, with plates from the stolen vehicle removed and replaced with plates taken off another car. This radio term may be used when a unit runs a plate for example on a Ford, but the DMV record comes back Honda. Next thing you will likely hear is suspect at gunpoint, or a felony stop.

Foundations

You can now steal the license plate off another player's vehicle and use it on your own. When law enforcement runs the plate, it'll return the information on the vehicle you stole it from. Since you have a plate attached, it won't draw attention to you and give police a reason to stop you unless they end up running that plate. But, jail time is guaranteed if you get caught.

 

When the owner of the vehicle you stole from realizes what happens, they can unregister their vehicle and re-register to get fresh plates. When this happens, there won't be any returns on your vehicle and you'll be driving with invalid tags, which is also gonna land you in jail.

 

To do this, you'll need a Screwdriver and Crowbar which you can buy from the Mall's tool shop. 

 

This can happen anywhere but it doesn't mean you should do it anymore. You must roleplay during the entire process and stealing plates off of vehicles in the middle of street, a populated area, outside of a business or any sillyness won't be tolerated.

Stealing

Stealing a plate is a straight forward process. You can do this with either a crowbar or screwdriver. A crowbar will make the process faster compared to a screwdriver but it'll be expensive getting one. You need to find a player owned vehicle. Head to the back where the plate is and use /stealplate. If they have no plate, you can't take it from them obviously! You can't take the plates off a vehicle whose plates are already stolen. Each plate is a one time use for now.

Attaching

Attaching the plate after you stole is also straight forward. The vehicle you took it from must remain near you at all times, otherwise, you won't be able to attach it to your vehicle. The vehicle you attach it to must be player owned. It doesn't matter if it has a plate or not. You can replace the existing cold plates on it if you'd like. Once you attach it, your vehicle will now spawn with those stolen plates until you change them. The vehicle you stole it from will go blank to show its plate is no longer there.
