Lets say you had the name Dick Wad (no personal offense meant)

and could not change it.

As I said, there was no personal offense meant. The "you're" was meant "collectively" as anyone trying to change his birth certificate. (or his car's)

But I will also stand by my firm conviction that "in general", anyone who sells, buys or installs a trim tag on a car it's wasn't born with it is a low-life unethical participant in this hobby.

I don't believe you're in that category, since you asked the question whether it would be ok or not. Someone in that category would not ask that question - he'd just do it and keep it to himself.

Verne, I couldn't have said it better.

If I was a guy that scrapped a bunch of cars over the years and kept the trim tags as a collection then needed money and decided to sell them, hopefully to someone else that collects them. Any harm in that ?

no

Nope. But then I don't suppose they'd sell for $900. apiece either.

No harm in that if you cut them in half, first. The data is still there for novelty sake, but it prevents it from being rivited onto another car.
