I've tried for a long time and no firm will make them due to chance of being charged with aiding and abeting ringing.

The vin number is stamped into the frame neck anyway and that should be enough

the stamped vin is still visible but it IS a bit difficult to see in all but the best light. when i had the frame blasted it really wore the numbers down, then painting it hurt it even worse.
