As for VIN#'s I've had a similar discussion on the Registry awhile back on the seriousness of tampering with them and it never ceases to amaze me how casual these guys are about stamping in their own numbers!! "I just want fresh VIN plates in my door since the old ones are all scuffed up. Anybody out there stamp numbers?" Even though that plate unscrews by law you are not allowed to tamper with or remove the original rivets that hold the tag on; not even just to clean under there! Stamping a new tag yourself is a whole other level stupidity. BTW it does amaze me that the Porsche vendors even offer these plates!!!! My information comes straight from the CHP and they are trained in what to look for. If they even suspect a VIN has been tampered with they will impound your car and take you downtown in the process. They will hold it until they can establish to their satisfaction its true identity. If they can't a judge will order the car destroyed, race history and all no matter who owned it or put that number in there.
