If you just need one replacement plate, like on a motorcycle or trailer, that will cost $6.17. If you need to replace other designs, since many of them are digital, the cost to replace those per set is $9.92. They state the fee to replace the embossed plates, the regular green and white plates as well as some others like government plates, front & back is $8.06. Since you are in Denver, I checked with the Denver County Motor Vehicle Department. Depending on the type of vehicle you have, there is a nominal fee to buy replacement license plates. If you are really concerned that your stickers are not in the right spot and you want a replacement to start over, you can do that. But improperly placed stickers can give them enough cause to pull you over. Most of the law enforcement I’ve spoken with say they care more about you having your registration up to date more than having the stickers in the right spot. The correct placement of the stickers is the year on the bottom right, the month on the bottom left. One of the worst offenders I've seen put stickers, year and month, all over the plate in random spots. Most times drivers put the month sticker where the year sticker should be or they put the stickers in the top corners of the plate instead of the bottom corners. I see license plates with stickers in the wrong spot all the time. In Colorado, it is a Class B traffic infraction, so a fine and no points. The simple answer Leslie is yes, it is technically against Colorado State Statute to put the stickers in the wrong spot on your license plate. Leslie in Denver writes, “What's driving you crazy? Is it illegal to place plate stickers on the plates on other than the assigned corners for Colorado residents? If so, does a person have to get another sticker and place it on the correct corner and remove the wrong placed sticker, do they get a ticket, what's the recourse?”
