Good Idea for PistonHeads?
Discussion
I was reading the posts about fellow PistonHeaders and 'has anyone seen me in my green Chimaera with pink stripes' and 'who owns that beige Cerbera?' etc. and also the stuff about reg plates and I've decided to get my new private plate printed with 'roadsweeper' on the bottom, where normally you get the dealer name - that way we'll know if we see anyone! 
I didn't fancy having a massive Kenwood-like 'PistonHeads' sticker (no insult Ted!) in my back window so this seems like an effective, but subtle compromise, as we'll all know where to look. (Of course, for those who have chosen a rude username it could be a problem! 
)
Anybody else up for this? (I don't want to be a loner or anything!
)

!! When i get my Chimaera I'd be up for putting my userid on the rear plate...Hey d_drinks, what's wrong with beige Cerberas?! I've just paid £40k for one. 
Or maybe not.
I think I'll just stick to 'roadsweeper' rather than 'PH - roadsweeper' as I reckon PHers will recognise it because they know where to look and might recognise the username. Of course, I also use it elsewhere on the Internet so there's also the risk of me receiving a good shoeing from someone I've insulted on the net!

Putting something on your number plate is a great idea.
I would also like to know who it is that I spot from time to time.
But... Unless you are parked, going 2 mph or can see better than superman, how will you be able to tell if there was anything on the number plate?
How about a Discussion area just for SPOTTING. Then you could find out if you were actually seen by anyone.

(not so anonomouse)
anonomouse: I think we can get away with small lettering - it would still be useful for spotting cars in traffic, or when parked, or even when you're just tailgating a fellow PHer (not advisable when they might now who you are!) anything bigger might spoil the look of the car. (I'm also thinking of users like 'kinky' who might not be too keen on having 'kinky' written in 12" high skin-tight black rubber lettering on their car.
