Los Santos DMV Presents: A Hitchhiker's Guide to Vanity Plates (GTA 6 Online Edition)
So, you've just rolled into Vice City in all your neon-soaked glory, fresh off the plane from sun-bleached Los Santos. Your pockets jingle with ill-gotten gains, your garage groans under the weight of stolen supercars, and your fashion sense screams "mafia boss gone clubbing." But something's missing. Your whip, that gleaming testament to your questionable morals, feels... naked. It needs a license plate that screams, "I may be a criminal, but at least I have good taste (in vanity plates)."
Fear not, petrol-soaked friend! This comprehensive (read: cobbled-together) guide will have you navigating the Los Santos DMV's bureaucratic labyrinth like a greased ferret in a ball pit. Buckle up, because we're about to get custom with those digits!
1. Ditch the iFruit App, Embrace the Web: Remember that hot mess of an app circa GTA 5? Yeah, it's gone the way of the dodo (along with flying motorcycles, sadly). Now, you whip up your vehicular vanity via the good ol' internet. Think cat videos, but with more chrome and less existential dread.
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
2. Channel Your Inner Shakespeare (With an 8-Letter Limit): Unleash your inner wordsmith! Craft a plate that's short, sweet, and oh-so-slightly illegal. Think "1337H4X0R" for your tricked-out Delorean, "KLA$$Y" for your gold-plated limo, or "NOP1GS" for your... well, you get the idea. Just avoid anything that might trigger the cops' facial recognition software (looking at you, "BANHAMR").
3. Backgrounds: Be Bold, Be Bonkers: Gone are the days of plain old yellow. Now, you can slap your text on everything from zebra stripes to psychedelic swirls. Want your plate to scream "I'm having an acid trip while robbing a casino"? We got you covered (with optional seizure warning).
Tip: Each paragraph has one main idea — find it.
4. Location, Location, Location: Not all plates are created equal. Some are restricted to specific districts or car clubs, adding a touch of exclusivity to your vehicular vanity. So, if you're rolling with the Ballas in South Central, "BL4ZIN" might be a hit. Just don't roll that same plate into Grove Street - unless you fancy a good ol' turf war, of course.

5. Pro Tip: Embrace the Glitches: Remember the good old days of duplicating cars and spawning infinite cash? Well, buckle up, because the rumor mill's churning about hidden plate glitches. Maybe you can score yourself a plate that reads "DEVMODE" or "ILUMINATI" (although, if the Illuminati are real, they probably wouldn't advertise on their license plates).
QuickTip: Read section by section for better flow.
Disclaimer: This guide is for informational purposes only. We accept no responsibility for any ensuing police chases, turf wars, or existential crises caused by your questionable plate choices. Play responsibly, folks, and remember: a good custom plate is like a fine wine - best enjoyed after outrunning the cops in a stolen helicopter.
So there you have it, folks! Your roadmap to vehicular vanity in GTA 6 Online. Now get out there, slap some words on a metal rectangle, and make those streets your personal runway (with optional airtime, courtesy of a well-placed rocket launcher). Just remember, with great power (and custom plates) comes great responsibility. Don't say we didn't warn you!
QuickTip: Treat each section as a mini-guide.
Happy plating, renegades!
