I'm getting in line behind Justin. I agree with you 100%. This procedure is exactly what I'm going through with my AAR. It got bumped right behind the driver's front wheel and messed up the fender and pushed the cowl in. Regardless, it was getting replaced do to hidden rot anyways but I've been taking many detailed photos of the hidden stamped vin because I'm moving it to a new panel. I'd like to be able to show people why I did this and how carefully it was done with before and after photos to back up its authenticity. Eddie
