This is a genuine license plate, from Fukuoka, and officially removed from the vehicle registration at the Land Transportation Bureau. It's the real deal, not something you can find at a general store. This plate was actually on a car. It could be even cleaner with some polishing compound. Perfect for Fukuoka enthusiasts or as a unique piece of decor. Since it has been officially removed from registration, there are no issues. The hole in the upper left corner is proof of this. It cannot be reattached to a vehicle. Please understand that the item is sold as-is upon arrival. I will answer any questions to the best of my ability.
