      Some states/provinces/principalities/whatever, may not require front plates on vehicles.

      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

        I see now that you had 'm at first on the VW's but not on the Volvo, and I remember at the time when seeing the first picture, I was wondering 'why does the volvo look so unnatural'. Now I know. The Volvo looks naked without a license plates. The VW's however, do not, since the model is designed to look good with or without them. Also, the metallic band helps.

          In the UK both front and rear plates are mandatory.Front plates white and rear yellow.

            When I studied in Pennsylvania, there front plates were not required (but you were only allowed to park you car with the rear out to the street in a parking lot).

                @ Davidh: when I try HDRI for my renderings,I can't control the size and position of it,so I can't control the reflection,backgrond and shadow in my renders.Do you have any tricks of using HDRI?or just drop HDRI map into GI and Background.
                Hope you can help ❓ ❓ ❓

                  When I am trying to locate the HDRI into position,what I normally do is load the HDRI and then hide all parts of the model,then render at about 640x420.because no geometry is being rendered,it takes very little time to render,normally 10 -20 seconds, and you can see straight away if you have to rotate it.Regarding shadows,you will only get strong shadows if you have a bright spot in the HDRI.As I said before,in order to get a good quality light from an HDRI,you need to use quite a large size image.You can use a smaller size and increase the multiplier but you will not get the same quality.
                  I normally use a HDRI for lighting at dusk shots.If you are using a HDRI for a dusk/early night shot it is good to get one that has a blue tinge to it,as even when it is totally dark,the sky colour is blue,not black.
                  (I have uploaded the image with car plates added)

                    Really looking good. Lighting spot on. Just a little bit of dirt (especially to the road and footpath) and you'd have nailed it totally.

                    Life's a reach, and then you gybe.

                      There's always something more to make it even more realistic...
                      I think it's great already!
