License plate frame?

Anyone know of a good, cheap source for a polished license plate frame for the TL? I'm looking for something that looks classy (so not to big or gaudy) and I don't want it to say 3.2 or type-S or anything that is not 3G.

Thanks in advance.

A few of our local WalMarts (perhaps you have one near you?) have a pretty good selection as well.

I just ordered/got one from mats.com (aka weathertec) <- the one that advertises in Autoweek all the time. Well, not cheap ($25) but the quality and service from them was decent.
It seems that some of those plastic frames from the local autoparts stores just won't fit and bolt into the space in the 3rd gen TL's.
I was hesitant to spend that much on a LP frame, but again the quality seems to be worth it. Actually two of my neighbors came up to me and asked me where I got it from. They're problably gonna have 'em soon too.
_another thing_ in CT theres been news reports of Aholes stealing tags or even cutting LPs to get registration tags. This LP frame makes it a little more difficult. Plus (theives stop reading NOW) at PepBoys there's some theft deterent allen LP bolts. These bolts thread/work on a TL. Just don't loose the special allen wrench if you want to remove the plates to sell and/or Zanio the car, right>?

Ugh.. later..

I got some nice black ones for $4.99 each at Pep Boys. Just a frame with no dealer ads. The back of our cars explains that it is a TL and and Acura enough for me so I decided to keep it simple.
