ATTN S14 Owners: VIN # in panels of s14's? Picture

[AuburnRyan]

Most manufacturers put the VIN# on every panel of newer cars. should be stamped on the each fender inside the engine bay - inside the trunk, etc. Thsi way you can tell if panel were replaced -

Do s14's (specifically 97-98, but either shoudl do) have the VIN#'s on original panels? Could someone who knows they have original bodypanels check...

Thanks :bowdown:

I doubt that they do have them on the panels. Havent seen any when i worked on my friends car or my car.

Is this one (a VIN Sticker) reflecting white on the right side of bay where the fender meets (right of factory airbox in pic)?

also on the Driver side strut tower...

no, its just a sticker that says nissan OEM body panel or something like that, def doesnt have the VIN on it, the sticker on the driver side strut tower says something about only use nissan clear coat or something stupid, again nothing about the VIN

um.. that's false. that number isn't a vin number. it's a product number.
But newer cars do have vin numbers in engine bay, trunk, door, and dash.

bmw's have vin #'s all over them like crazy

Kouki S14s have a numbered sticker on every panel, though I've never looked to see what it is. Zenkis didn't ever have them, at all.

just look for the r dot sticker..... u can totally tell the difference from an aftermarket fender vs OEM... gaps and such... corner gaps are usually the tell all... if u look at the bolt holes on top of the fender, and u see thats its been reamed... thats basically a tell all....

I just have a VIN # on the trunklid.
