Thanks bro, I read up on some of that stuff already. So if my mom just got some random plate#s for her new car, and now we order a special interest license plate, all we need to do is pay the fees and all the registration stuff etc will automatically be changed?

thanks guys, I will order it tomm. It says you gotta go to the DMV to pick this up when it's ready in a few weeks. They can't just mail it like the original plate?
