Lol sigma at least yours will be original these ones with have a little reflection in the paint so won't be as cool I dunno how the whole reuse your number thing works I have a custom plate and I'm reusing it for this. so maybe you can reuse any plate as long as you "own" it.

Yes they do and I think you can reorder the plates you have as long as they are yours.

Man I think it would be really cool to have a brand new black plate, most the ones you see are all faded or beat. That whole couple years thing is a major set back though, who knows if you'll still own your car in 2015?!

Something like a group buy. They're only going to start making them if enough people buy them.

I wish they would have made it so that the plate can only go on a car that was built during the time that the plate was originally issued. A band new car with a black plate is just blasphemy.

but that defeats the purpose of them trying to "bring it back" and how would that help their sales assuming most of the cars in maybe the 70s and 80s are destroyed in some way or another.
