Well, i been looking to buy a WS6/firehawk since i been without one for quite awhile.
To make story short I notice this on a firehawk I went to see to purchase...
Wondering what they removed from that lower decal.
Anyone has carfax or can check the history?
here is the picture....

That's the tire size & air pressure decal. Looks to me like it at one time had another sticker stuck on top of it.

Maybe a replacement door with a different tire placard?

i think the SLP sticker was removed. SLP put 275/40/17 tires on the firehawks, looks like the factory stick has the smaller/stock 16'' rims and air pressure info. is it an actual firehawk or WS6? don't know but i'll sell you my firehawk :D ... car fax is junk by the way

I am pretty sure it was the SLP tire size/psi sticker that was placed there during the conversion. Call SLP with the VIN to confirm.

It has the SLP sticker/decal and it is above the decal with the GM VIN number.
Its all faded but you can still see SLP.
My question is the decal that was removed from the tire size sticker (stripes residue)....I know some cars they have rebuilt titles or flood damage or salvage.
wondering if that was there.....

make sure the vin on the door matches the windshield, then call SLP and make sure its a true firehawk

You just said the other SLP sticker is there.
Also check to see if there's an SLP second sticker option listing decal on the passenger door.

If this is a late-4th-gen car, look for the WU6 code on the driver's door RPO code sticker.
That is the Firehawk build RPO code number.
(Looks like that's a 2001 model year VIN number.)

You already seem to know it is a true Firehawk & simply want to know, was that where SLP put their tire sticker, correct?!?

So the answer is, ..., Yes.
SLP puts their tire sticker over the OE/GM sticker.

And do NOT ask for anyone here to run a CarFax for you.
You will get a time-out.
CarFax watches sites like this for people getting the service run without paying for it themselves.
