About time! I complained to Ford as soon as I saw those HSV plates on the V Plates website saying something along the lines of:

"WTF?! Why are you guys always second at getting something done? Why can't you get on the front foot first and beat Holden for a change!"

I also added a point that a lot of people do notice that it takes Holden to do something before they do anything.

A couple of months after my suttle complaint they were on the NSW RTA site offering FPV plates and now in VIC.

Let's just hope you have to proove the plates will be attached to a actual FPV and will be used on an actual car rather than the current trend where basically scalpers buy all the good plates and on sell them at a profit

I think you can choose to upgrade your current plates to a FPV type aswell. I mean with the fpv logo etc.
