Found out today that while the shop was working on my 914-6, one of the flunky's remove & destoyed my sticker from the door-jam. I had made it Perfectly Clear that this sticker was not to be touched and to be protected during the restoration. But now it's gone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
I was told that you can get them from Porsche? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I know that George sells replicas, but how do you get them perforated? Pissed & confused in Tampa, T.C. |

That sucks big time, but there is not a lot that can be done about it now. Talk to the shop owner, and let him know that the value of your restoration has just been diminished, and you expect to be compensated accordingly.
I would get a new vin sticker made from Porsche. I know that they don't look the same as the old ones. I worry that perforating one of AA's stickers could be considered a VIN crime if your car inspector was having a bad day, or just wanted to be hard nosed. Its one of those things that would probably never happen, but if it did it could land you in a lot of trouble. You might loose points in concourse for having the modern vin sticker, but its better then having your car in an impound lot while the mess is worked out. Zach |
