D Pellitier Finally someone that has a clue. If you read my post closely I say why do you need to call it a FAKE tag. To me that implies that you are up to no good or you are doing something bogus. Now, are there some bad apples out there yes. But most of the time guys are being honest and just want to put a tag on the car. So why not just call it what it is a reproduction tag. In my last post I think I made some valid points about these tags. So you have a tag with incorrect info on it from the factory or deleted or just left out and they are also different from one factory to the next doesn't seem like a very reliable piece of information to me. Just my opinion. Also like I said if you have someone reputable do the tag they make you jump through hoops to have one redone.. Larry J out
