Default Pic request - Sapphire floor vin stamp

As title really, would be very grateful if anyone had, or could get a photo of the stamp in floor of the digits, to compare to a J plate 4x4, if that makes any odds.
One I viewed digits slanted forward and back a bit, although were in a straight line.
Many thanks, Justin.

Well when the chassis number looks like it's stamped by a toddler gets you that way

Gonna pop over and have a look at mates in a minute, if it's not just a heap of rust!

Well, mates is nice and tidy, stamped upwards, small, and paint on it.
One I viewed is stamped into floor, no paint, twice the size, and slanted back and forth digits.
Presume something's not 100%.

I've seen them unpainted for sure Justin!

Have you done a HPI report on the car yet?

HPI is all clear, so wouldn't mean car would be taken off me or anything like that I suppose, but something must be up.
Mates isn't painted painted, was hard to look properly due to access issues to car, but a lot different on the whole.

Jase - was just handy with the good trade in mate

So what could be wrong, is a reshell a ringer?
I dunno, what a fucker.

Don't think reshell's are ringers mate no, but i'm SURE you have to do them right so they're not! If that makes sense!

Mate, as Jason said if your not 100% walk away as you'll regret it taking a chance if there is a problem!

Plenty more out there!

Would like some pics though just to see if they vary or not, mates looks factory like though, and this one by hand.
