I'm searching for a replacement for my '94 325i, and I came upon an E46 that has no VIN number (that's redundant, isn't it?) stickers on the variouis body panels.
Does anybody have a good explanation as to why they would have stopped puting VIN stickers on the major body parts? Understanding why they put the stickers on in the first place makes me wonder why they would take them off instead of put them on even more parts. Understanding the costs to put the stickers on the parts they put them on tells me why they don't put them on more parts, but I can't figure out why they stopped putting them on.
