Default Windshield post replacement/VIN tag replacement

My buddie is replacing the windshield posts which are rusted through and the VIN tag is in bad shape. The posts are easy to get but is there a source that you can get a new VIN tag and the matching rivets (rosette style) and restore the area back to new? :cheers:

Hi

Do a search on this forum about VIN tags.
There have been mega discussions held already about this, specially the legal aspect about it.

Good luck. Gunther
