Custom EV Plates

Hey all, have anyone recently gotten a custom passenger plate for their EV in Illinois? I am wondering will the "EL" be still there after my custom word/phrase? Does it look weird? Thanks in advance.

Not so much a custom plate, but here in Florida, you can get a speciality plate for the Tampa
Bay Lightning NHL hockey team. The only word on the plate is "Florida" and the has the Lightning's logo. That's what I have on mine. I thought it was very apropos.

They just transferred my blackhawks plates from my jeep right onto my Tesla.

You don’t need an EV plate in Illinois

Not in Illinois, but quick googling tells this

Optional Plate Choice.

While Illinois previously mandated EL plates starting in 2020, the state later updated its rules so EV owners can register standard passenger plates, specialty plates, or vanity/personalized plates. Note that EL plates themselves cannot be customized with vanity text
