ID re-stamping-new vin plates to replace old one, advice needed please
 

Im going to have my escort floor pans replaced as the rust is eating it. is it possible to have the number stamped back into the new drivers side floor pan?
if so where does this?

Also whilst im on the subject, im hoping to get the shell looking like brand new and wondering if i can get my vin plate swapped for a shiny new one as this one has seen better days. i have the old one and the log book in my name so i can prove its mine. Is there a place that does this?

thanks in advance

Local ford dealerships will do this for you for a few quid.

cheers

really? i didnt think hey would still have them old plates in stock. ill give them a call tomorrow. thanks

the plate on the slam panel ?
i orderd one a few years back and it arrived 2 weeks later as mine was crushed in an accident

so hope this helps

yes, i have tried 3 ford garages today and they all said they dont do them. can you remember who you contacted?

find monster on here he CAN help

monster makes plates which you can literally have anything you want on. He is very talented.

You can get brand new original vin plates on egay from time to time. Im sure i read somewhere that some were being remade too??

thank you for the help guys, ill message him now.

do you know anyone that could stamp my new floor pan?
i asked ford today and they said they dont have the stamps anymore?
id try to stamp it myself but i cant do the stars and i know i woudnt be able to get it straight:?

use a torx bit for the stars? :cry::cry::cry::cry:

try www.vintgasuk.com

hes just done mine

Thats not a bad idea, if i cant find anyone with the original ford stamps ill have to give that a go :grin:

i have just been on the site now, I will be ringing them in the morning.
thanks for the help

Monster did mine and made some extra custom plates for me, they were perfect and i mean perfect! I will be using him in the future.....

says sites unavailable or does not exist... did u not have this problem?
iv got a nice ford vin tag for my xr3 i want stamping but need a new colour one making up.

re-arrange the g and the a in the web address and it will work

Vintagsuk made me a new paint tag.

Absolutely spot on service. Guy is a gent

If you are replacing the floor panel where the chasis number is make sure you gets pics before and after just incase you have any DVLA trouble years down the line (I got told this by the DVLA).


Steve

iv ordered mine off monster, he sent me pics of his work and it looks amazing!


as for the floor pan im yet to find someone to do it properly.

quick update: i got my new vin tags in the post from monster, his work is top notch and highly recomended :top:
