Hood Stickers
I just had the hood replaced on my '04 LS... while they did a really nice job of it, I noticed that it doesn't have any of the "usual" stickers on the underside. I also don't remember if it should have any. Can someone tell me if there should be stickers on the underside of the hood?
I'm being a tad anal here, I know, but I'd like the car to look right... even under the hood.

The replacement hood I got had a Mazda R sticker. Like Sammm said R-DOT. No vin, or anything else. Then I got another hood and it was used from someone, it had their vin and info on it.
I've got a box full of tire manufacturer, oil company, etc., etc., you can have to fulfill your sticker needs.Originally Posted by Dave04
Just an FYI, our '02 has 4 Stickers under the hood.

Thanks... this is exactly what I was looking for... any chance I can pick up a set from Mazda?

Will Mazda reprint VIN stickers?
Even if they don't it wouldn't be that hard to create your own...

They gave me the third degree just getting key copies made... I can't imagine what fiery hoops someone would have to jump through to get VIN stickers reprinted!
OK, OK... I don't need a VIN sticker... but the other three would be nice.

If they have a part number on them you should be able to order them.
Are you worried about the eventual re-sale price of your Miata because of the replacement hood?
Sure... that's part of it. Though I really don't plan to sell it any time soon.
It's partly just me being anal and wanting it to look "origional".

I suppose the old hood is long gone? The body shop should've recovered the labels from there.
Yeah, but I'm betting they don't peel off to well.
I called Town North and they said they could order them for me. Should be here around Wednesday.

I know everyone has been dying to know the outcome...
I got three of the stickers from Mazda today... now just have to see what it takes to get a VIN sticker made...

I would suppose an act of Congress would be in order!
Stickers should come off much easier if you can heat them... a nice hot hair dryer will usually do the trick. Place them on wax paper after you remove them.
We used to do that years ago at a computer store I worked at with warranty stickers on computers when they came in for upgrades/service. Worked like a champ!
Just don't use a heat gun! You'll burn the stickers up.
