2552: License plates that are 3D Printed
Hi, according to the game manual, as I read it, 3D printed license plates are allowed as long as they fit the size parameters and are non-functional.
Can they be held on with VEX screws, zip ties or the like? Because as I understand it those count as functional parts, but decorations (and license plates) that are non-VEX are allowed as long as they ONLY are used to hold the plate on.
So would it be allowed to have a 3D printed plate held on with, for example, zip ties, as long as it plays no functional role?

License Plates can be connected to the Robot with any legal fastener.
