My front hood was replaced and I told the body shop to order the 2 stickers that go under the hood as a new hood does not come with the stickers.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was just curious if this is a way to tell if a vehicle has been wrecked or not if they are missing?

POST 2Original post

Not sure what you mean. The stickers, such as tire pressure, a/c system, smog, have part numbers and you can buy the stickers. My front hood was replaced and I told the body shop to order the 2 stickers that go under the hood as a new hood does not come with the stickers. Also had my option sticker put on the new hood. Jeff

POST 3Original post

My guess is that musicmovesme is a BMW owner. They have VIN stickers on all removable panels, that when replaced are obviously no longer there. It makes spotting a bent Bimmer easier. AFAIK, Porsche uses no similar system. -Paul

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ettsn, thanks for the response but No I'm not a BMW owner I'm actually a 2k c2 owner. I was just curious about a way the common everyday guy could check for orginal body parts. I have a buddie who is looking at 99's and this came up in conversation.

POST 5Original post

my 951 has these decals - they have the VIN on them (i believe) and i can see them on the tops of the front fenders, under the hood, among other places - maybe they don't do it anymore, tho....

POST 6Original post

Is it possible to get another option sticker that is under the hood?
