Colorado’s green and white mountain-themed license plates might be a beloved classic, but one auto enthusiast’s idea would mean adopting an entirely new color – black.

In a petition on Change.org, Jordan Shaw suggests that Colorado offers a ‘blackout’ option for plates with a black background, very dark grey mountains, and white lettering. The plate would be meant to appeal to auto enthusiasts – aesthetically appealing with a clean-cut look. The white on black nature of the plate also makes the text highly visible.

In order for the plate to be created, interest must be shown toward the design in a crowded field of other contenders competing for required legislative action.

As of June 27, roughly 1,500 people have signed the Change.org petition calling for the change. Not a fan of the ‘blackout’ plates – don’t worry, this is only asking for the option to be offered, not a full switch.
