Default Re: New trim tags on Ebay

Blank trim tags and Protect-o-Plates are perfectly legal. Even the stamping of them is legal. The removal of the trim tag on the car and replacing it is perfectly legal.

This is very unfortunate for the car hobby. Sure many guys on this board could spot a fraudulant trim tag, but what about someone that is new to cars. These are the "pigeons" that many of these replacement trim tags will fool. I have heard of some people having their body media blasted and the blaster destroyed the trim tag. That does happen.

Now lets look at the guy selling blank VIN tags. My understanding, is that be they blank or stamped they are illegal to sell. The fact that he will stamp them (insert with a real vin) is very very illegal. Like Verne Frantz said how this guy stays out of jail is a mystery.
