just to let everyone know . i have been a restorer & rebuilder for almost 40 years. the cops take a real dim view of anybody messing with a vin tag this is a felony. probably won't get you jail time , but will cost you a small fortune to have a lawyer get you out of it. plus the cops will confiscate the vehicle until the problem is worked out.
in my view it's not worth the gamble just to save an hour waiting for an inspection
