Mind you, it is a particularly customisable licence plate. I've seen stickers put over the smiley face to look like bullet holes or sunglasses (and that was a suggestion from the clerk's office!) I've tinkered with the notion of printing up some magnets to decorate it for holidays.
I used to have a licence plate that was one of the pay-more-for-charity ones that had a 'I care about kids' logo with...yes, a sun, as if drawn by a little kid. It helped fund child abuse prevention programmes. When I got this car, it already had the new plate. Somehow, the sun on my other plate didn't bother me. I think it's the Toontown (for those who remember Roger Rabbit) or breakfast cereal qualities that just make me want to gag. Well, that and the 'It's that friendly' logo. Fortunately, I don't really have to look at the one on my car that much, and they're now so ubiquitous that I ignore them on others.
