I know it's possible, but I've never seen it for LOF logos and dating.

Did you try Auto City Classics for your glass? They do LOF glass with or without dating. From my experience with them in the past, they usually ship within 24-48 hours, and are cheaper than OEM Glass.

These guys are good. I always use them if I need date coded glass, or clear glass. Typically, you can only get tinted glass from the local glass suppliers.
