it's nice to have a personalized plate with a reference to bitcoin, if it's not too expensive to get one ,i could think about it, it would be a source of pride

Read and comprehend. Evaluate and take action.
I personally would keep a low profile and not announce that I probably have a lot of Bitcoins because I created a Bitcoin vanity plate. You can easily become a target of a criminal, who can follow you, rob you, or force you to give up your coins. And if that happens the cops are not going to be able to get them back for you.

Yup. this is how a smart person does it. stay smart and avoid unnecessary risk and headache.

People tend to forget the reason why one would want to have custom license plates. To show off.  And gov knows it and lets them have it for extra $.

You got a good point here, people can easily expose themselves to lots of weirdos out there simply because of their stupidity.  

Simplest scenario: a person got a vanity plate, RICHBTC (or similar) and drives around. gets noticed by jealous weirdo, gets tracked down, kidnapped, forced to give his coins(if any) and hopefully survives. coins gone, hopefully alive, but feels so awesome to have a fancy custom plate. and a gun he has/had carried didn't help.

Now imagine a scenario with a creative criminal who can plan things out - you are a legit target. You say I'm paranoid ? Watching too much Hollywood ? Get real and face the reality.

We live in america, where safe to live for the most part. Americans are normally trustworthy and you wouldn't typically expect something like this. In other countries people kill each other for food, and we're talking about crypto which is nowadays more valuable than precious metals.

This. Not very smart to be honest
