Vanity Plates

Never been a really big fan of vanity plates, and doing my search I came across posts regarding ideas, many of which I thought were bad (no offense) because it would just draw the attention of the wrong crowd.

Thing is I want a dedicated "United We Stand" plate for NJ (proceeds go towards fighting terrorism), and it looks like I would need to personalize it with 5 symbols, three of which have to be letters. I worked in the WTC on 9/11 and this is just a little way of helping the cause and showing my patriotism. Last Monday in Boston just solidified my thought process on this - after going through 9/11 last Monday brought back some bad memories (not making any comparison between the two), especially since I also lived and went to school up there. Its a little donation which is insignificant, but its just a way for me to show how much I love this country which welcomed my parents as immigrants 40 years ago and allowed me to live the life I have.

Im looking for some very obscure ideas, or else I'll just pick a random combination. I originally wanted S63TU, but its taken already. It did however allow me to pick TUS63.

Any opinions on TUS63, is it a bad idea, or do you get the point? I know TU stands for "technical revision" but not sure if putting it in front is wrong in any way. Im not looking for anything flashy, nothing AMG, nothing referencing BMW or ///M, perhaps F10 something, but that could also rub someone the wrong way as if Im comparing my car to a fighter jet.

Obscure ideas anyone? 5 characters, must have 3 letters. My car docks in 4 days by the way!

thanks

AWF10, since you have an alpine white M5.

Informative yet not conspicuous.

Too many rules you have to follow, roll the dice and pick random letters at this point. Nice reasoning why you are doing but I honestly think you are taking the fun out of it by thinking too much. Mine simply says my name : braad

I wanted to get BDR529, but I'm not allowed that format of letters and numbers here.
