But if he has half a brain, he will check the VIN, and it will show it as a Dodge, regardless of the door or the grille. A state trooper should be even bright enough to figure out that Dodge is a product of Daimler chrysler.

I agree, but an odd Dodge that's made completely by MB in Dusseldorf with Dodge do-dads popped on just before it goes on the boat.

I do think it might cause a problem if pulled over, if you replace the do-dads with the orignal MB ones. The cop pulls up that you have a Dodge Sprinter and you clearly have a Mercedes Sprinter...he checks the plate on the door and it says Daimler-Chrysler, not Dodge.

It all depends on the VIN and what the vehicle was called when it was
originally sold - what's been replaced is immaterial. You can put all
the 3 pointed stars you want on a Dodge and it's still a Dodge.
