May I submit exhibit 'A', a fraudulent plate mounted to a typical license plate frame. We know this plate to be fraudulent as the vehicle it is affixed to is acknowledged to be a fake Shelby Cobra, registered in NJ under DMV provisions for kit cars, therefore it cannot be a REAL427.



You will note the frame is described as follows and can be bought here -

The question is, if you are going balls out to misrepresent your fake cobra as a REAL427 for sale, does the fake license plate frame add monetary value to your fraud price?
