In Hawaii ethnic or (foreign) national identity is very strong (even with non-1st generation) as you can see flags quite commonly (especially hanging from rear view mirrors) to "____ Built" stickers/decals on vehicles.

An example of decals:

*Some decals are very large and take up entire back windows. Although the example above states Maui Built below each ethnicity, the most common way of seeing it is by Ethnic Group with Built added, for example: Portuguese Built, Tokelauan Built, etc. and it's mainly used to refer to their origin.

Example of rear view hanging flags which are also very common in Hawaii
