Default Black or chrome license frame on white xb??

Hi all! Just a quick question-I have a white xb and my plates finally came in. Do you think they look better with a chrome plate or a black plate frame?? Our plates in NM are a bright turquoise.... Or I was thinking about a zebra pattern license plate... Any ideas???

If you have a white xB and you don't do any other funky colors with it, black or chrome would look great. I'd go with chrome, but if you added more black to your car, you'd have to go with a black frame.

As for my Classic Silver Metallic xB, I sport chrome, black, and yellow for my theme, so my license plate frame, naturally, is a bright yellow.

I went with chrome back and front the back I had to put 1/2" foam insulation to keep it from rattling.
