This is a genuine license plate, from Fukuoka, officially removed from the vehicle registration by the Land Transportation Bureau. It's the real deal, not something you'd find in a general store. This is an authentic plate that 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 circular 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.
