Anything that will interefere with the reading of a license is illegal. The obstruction with a tinted cover or overly ornate border frame could be ticketed.

To the best of my knowledge they are only unlawful if they are tinted or discolored to the point where they change the basic color(s) of the original license plate or obscure the plate in some fashion so that it cannot be read. The best thing to do in order to be certain is to contact your local PD or DMV office and ask.

Are Tinted license plate covers illegal in nc?
As of December 1, 2010, NC now has a new law that any frame or transparent/tinted cover that obscures the license plate in any way and makes part of the plate "illegible" makes the driver subject to a $100 fine. The police officer gets to determine whether the cover makes it "illegible", not you. Plenty of news articles citing the new law, here's one such: http://www.newsobserver.com/2010/12/01/835589/license-tag-must-come-clean-today.html (Old answer below:) I was stopped for speeding passing through Greensboro and the officer told me the tinted cover I had on my NC plate was illegal, but of couse he did not ticket me for that, just letting me know. I talk to the DMV Raleigh and all I could get was we never heard of that. I cannot find any law, stating that.

They are illegal to have tinted driver side windows. Basically a cop needs to see into the glass incase you are holding a gun. It is more for his safety when he pulls you over..
