My paint guy got me a new set of door tags....look great, but do not have GM on them. I can ask him on Monday if you are interested. They were not cheap....I think the two were $135 or so.

Oh and hope your repaint goes faster than mine is. May 4 will be 9 months at the paint shop and still waiting for all the parts to be finished.

Which ones are you talking about, the GM ones. I replaced the tags on the doors and they didn't cost $135.

Are you looking for the GM silver and blue ones or the tire one. You can get them on e bay or from one of the vendors. I wouldn't pay $135 for them.

You're looking for the vehicle certification/gross weight sticker on the door. The assembly instruction manual shows these, where they were positioned, and what was supposed to be typed on them, including your complete VIN.

If you find reproduction stickers, the $135 fee should also include putting your C3's information on them and in the correct type face.

I found that sticker also, it came blank. If it is going to cost $135 to get the information put on it, it is staying blank.
