I think if you found the picture on the internet, then post it as is...

If YOU took the photo of someone else's car - then cover 'em up...unless your posting a picture and laughing at their ghey numberplates...

^^^ +1. my thoughts exactly.

I don't know if it really matters that much, the number plates can be seen in public anyway by anyone whenever you drive the car, can't blur them out on the road.. that would be illegal

they are two entirely different things but that doesnt neccesarily mean that it could be treated differently..what does it really matter if they are shown over the net?

yeah this is true LOL.

Ahh, Logic to this topic after-all, In light of this information I will agree then, blurring FTMFW!, Thanks Kosti for Clearing that up.

I wouldnt think they could just cancel your rego based upon what they read on a forum. there is nothing stopping me from posting a pic of some random car, claiming it as mine and listing mods that dont exist to get someone else's car defected. there would have to be an inspection by someone before a defect notice could put on the vehicle.

i think blurring out the number plates is the way to go ..
on saying this i was way too lasy when posting my car on here but it does give you a little more piece of mind knowing your car is a little harder to track down especially after most people on this website are really into their cars and can appriciate the time, money and effort put into everyones car but you never know with things like the net and you never know what crackheads are veiwing the website on guest and sussing out which cars in their local area to steal full of aftermarket goodies..
i dunno maybe its a little bit paranoid but im sure im not alone.

usually i dont bother covering up my own plates.. i dont really see much point..

when posting up pics i got of ppls cars from cruises, i dont usually blank them out.. the boys over at rx8club.com requested that when i do so, i cover up all their plates.. so i did.. but usually i dont bother doing so.. havent had anyone ask me to do so, or ask me to change it.. so i just keep going that way..

-edit-
and plus, im sure they could easily spot my plates from looking in my profile, or my sig, or username (as some ppl have their plates as their username on many forums, such as NS or BoostCruising, etc).. they could look in links in my sig, on my car profile page on here or Boost, etc etc.. So unless i covered up from the start, there are lots of places id have to find to change that back (web galleries, posts on forums, etc)..
