Every once in a while, a product comes across our feeds that makes us ask: "Why didn't we think of that?" This one is among the most recent eureka moments we wish we came up with first. Whether you have a cammed engine that chugs along the whole car, or you're an audio aficionado with a bumping system, you've probably experienced the phenomenon of a shaking license plate rattling against your car, or against its plastic frame. If you haven't, try standing outside your car and listening when the car - or subwoofer - is turned on.
It's a sound so frequently associated with thumping subwoofers that we can practically hear it when we imagine the sound of a bass-heavy ride. The vibrations of the license plate cause it to rattle loudly against the car or license plate frame, making for an awful racket that takes away from your lumpy idle or your precisely tuned audio system. We've seen some amusing hacks to prevent this phenomenon over the years - from duct tape behind the license plate to cardboard or cork "gaskets" on the plate frames. Both of these options can still ruin the paint beneath them, and are often temporary solutions, as they wear out in the elements. Enter the smartest idea we've seen in ages: the silicone license plate frame.
