Subject: [DMCForum] DMC Belfast VIN tag...

There was some talk awhile back about the possibility of the dash VIN tag
being painted to reduce glare.  My car has a black interior and a black tag
but since it is an early car I am wondering if the plate was painted.  

I was looking at a car today in the 4000 VIN range with a gray interior and
notice the dash tag was painted gray.  Around the edges you could see some
black as the gray paint was lifting off.  The underlying black didn't look
like paint but like the black VIN tags I have seen pictures of on early
cars.

Has anyone tried to carefully remove the paint to see if their plate has
"DMC Belfast" on it?  Whenever I can get to mine I am going to try.  Does
anyone know if the early tags were plated, anodized or something else?
