They are aluminum. I have one of each. I run the silver border plate on my Toro.

Why the political rant over a material question?

RT - I don't care if you ignore me. I try to ignore your continual & repeated banter of political hype which is continually interjected into many threads. I am sick of listening to your continual political banter. Exactly what does your post contribute to the OP's original question? Your political banter is not getting old - it is old, it's unwarranted, boring and obnoxious. Most of us have to come to know a fair amount about you. There is no reason to bring another CO member into this thread. You're an enabler.

Ok..lemme set the record straight. First of all, I don't intend on removing the front plate. I was looking at the dealer plate to use for shows only. I don't have the dealer plate, and the reason I was asking if it was steel or aluminum was because I was going to use magnets to stick it over the front VA tag so I wouldn't have to remove my front tag. After mulling it over, I decided to scrap that plan because I Iean my display board right under the front bumper when I'm at a show, so it covers the front plate.

Didn't mean to cause such a s**t storm.

Dave - It was not you who created the sh** storm. It follows some folks around.

RT - You're a brilliant CO contributor with a wealth of Oldsmobile knowledge. I am pointing out to you the fact you do repeatedly take liberty to voice your political opinions which as I have said are unwarranted. You might want to think about what you post in threads, since you asked how I dragged another CO member into this thread. Was this not you who made this statement. Let's let it die - get on with life. I really don't understand why you take liberties to inject political banter.

Like RandyS you don't know anything about me
That quote has absolutely nothing to do with this thread.
