Re: Ca, Re-issuing Black Plates
It is the same YOM(Year of Manufacturer) program it has always been from what I understand. You bring the plates in and the DMV makes sure they are clear. Clear means they are not in use or the plate number is not registered to a motorcycle. My understanding is the reason black and gold plates were not allowed as YOM plates earlier is because bikes used that sequence. All you have to do to see if a car has its original plates is to look at a registration or title prior to 2009. I've been saving up black and golds for just this reason. I have a few cars that have been begging to get them back.
