Blueray Hypersonic January 8, 2016 Share January 8, 2016 Not that I am aware of. What is your purpose of engraving ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsl118 6th Gear January 8, 2016 Share January 8, 2016 (edited) I always thought engraving is old school security measure, where it was easier for car thieves to change your plates but forget that your VN was engraved on wind screen. Is it still in practice? On another note, I think my windscreen just got engraved by a few stray rock chips after frequenting Seletar Link ...

Doppel Turbocharged January 8, 2016 Share January 8, 2016 Nowadays, most cars' front windscreens have an aperture at the bottom, where you can see the vehicle's chassis number engraved on a nameplate affixed on the bonnet. So I think this security measure is sufficient. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember those days of windscreen engraving... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjtune Clutched May 27, 2018 Share May 27, 2018 Reviving an old thread... You can DIY. I did it using masking tape, those alphabet stickers from Daiso and Popular, and glass etching gel (weak hydroflouric acid in gel form) bought online from eBay. I think local arts and crafts shops may have it too. Glass etching is a very common hobby overseas. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
