Mine too wrinkled, but no sticker usually means a wrecked car (trunk lid replaced).

I was told by my dealership that the options sticker you are talking about under the hood is the ONLY sticker they can not order to replace a missing one.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey folks. I was wondering if its possible to order the sticker with the chassinr and color etc... that are orginal on the innerside of the front hood? Regards //

POST 2Original post

I've not heard of people buying the sticker but I have heard of people buying a Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) which in theory lists all the same things as the sticker. However, many people have also complained that their CoA was not accurate.

POST 3Original post

There's a duplicate of it in your owner's manual or the service book... I forget which. If you really want one that badly, you could do what the concours guys do: make one. Find a friend in the graphic arts trade to scan your duplicate and print it out on label paper. Best I can think of. I'd be shocked if Porsche was willing to bother selling something that was basically a manufacturing and inventory control label.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I see, I will do the printing thing. Thanks guys!

POST 5Original post

I was told by my dealership that the options sticker you are talking about under the hood is the ONLY sticker they can not order to replace a missing one. Every other sticker on the car has a Porsche part number and can be ordered if need be.

POST 6Original post

Your dealer cannot order you a replacement white option sticker that goes under the hood. But how hard is it for PAG/PCNA to print a replacement sticker if they wanted to? There is nothing special about printing information on a paper stick-on sticker. If Porsche is motivated to print a sticker then Porsche can. About 2 years ago on this board there was a new USA owner who did the usual. He looked at the sticker and listed the option codes, trying to figure out the factory options. Problem was the option codes on the sticker did not match the options on his car. Upon further investigation the VIN on his sticker did not match the VIN of the car. In fact, the VIN on the sticker was for a LHD ROW car. The option sticker for some ROW car somehow was placed on a USA car. He said he got the correct sticker for his car.

POST 7Original post

If people rely on it so much for authinticity or whatever they should make that sticker out of something better than paper. Mine on both my cars (Boxster and C4S) are wrinkled from moisture. (still legible however). I imagine they dont look too gud after twenty years or so.

POST 8Original post

Mine too wrinkled, but no sticker usually means a wrecked car (trunk lid replaced). I would also be very questionable about a car with a sticker that was just fabbed at a print shop.
