Need help ford raptor 2017
#11
In all my years, I have never, ever given my vin number when ordering parts, touch up paint or anything else for my truck. Paint code is on the inside of your door. Need a part: year, trim, door config, drive-train, and engine - done.
If I own a 2017 Raptor and I want the decals, any schmuck working at a dealer can look at my truck and understand the decal I need. Is it a Screw or Scab? It's not rocket science.
Ever hear of vin cloning? You wonder why the dude is asking for the vin of an uber expensive truck, like a raptor? Take a look: http://abcnews.go.com/US/vin-cloning...ry?id=28401709

The amount of paranoia oozing from you post is incredible. I can literally walk by your truck and get YOUR vin # without issue. Depending on the state in which you live, I can probably pull your VIN for free by simply taking down your license plate. You need to chill.
You didn't want to give him your VIN - Fine. Move along.

THIS... Dude just wants decals. Your VIN is inside your driver's side windshield, btw... The article you referenced lists very simple solutions for preventing VIN Cloning...
