I just got an email from ESC stating they now offer licensed FCA dash vins. I think that vin tag they offer may be a sticker? Will have to give them a buzz and see what is the dillio on that.

so I understand this right. You have a body, no vin, no data tag, no broadcast sheet to prove the number / vin you make is correct other than the last 8 stamped in the core support
IMO< have a state assigned vin put on it and call it a day To be honest, I want both on the car. I want a blue tag is the a-pillar drip raid and the correct looking tag on the dash.

While your post shows VIN tag, the website does not. It shows Labels only.
Where did you find that screen shot - I use the same address and get something else. Yeah, like yourself I only found labels and couldn't find VIN tags on their website either, maybe it's too new. That screenshot is from the email ECS sent to me on Nov. 01, 2022, I just edited out some personal information. If you're interested call them. I've phoned them in the past and they were more than helpful and pleasant

Dave has told me that the two companies that used to do it are no longer doing so because too man people did illegal stuff with the vins they provided and have shut down to limit their legal liabilities. I am considering approaching state and federal offices about reproducing them legally with a proper documentation trail.

What is the difference from other vin rivets? they used to sell cheap rosette rivets from Russia on Ebay for something like $25a PAIR shipped. these rivets are bare non plated. a LOT of sellers bought them, paint them black and sold for profit. the correct river is dark brown almost black. these rivets are anodized. look closely at original and top of line resto cars vin tags. the rivets are a slightly different color than the black tag. the rivets pictured came from the AMC / Chrysler assembly plant in Kenosha before the closed it down. i think i have had these rivets for over 30 years. got them from a friend whos dad worked at the plant.
