My XLR/V(s): 2006 Infared XLR-V, 2005 Infared STS, 1990 Red Allante | Window Sticker
I am trying to get a window sticker reproduction for my 2006 XLR-V as I did not get the original when I bought it. I found someone that can recreate window stickers for the XLR, but they do not have an example of the XLR-V sticker so they can incorporate any differences. Would someone have an original for their car that they could copy / scan and send to me?
Thanks,
Steven

You can get a reproduction window sticker from the Corvette Museum. I was able to get the original build sheet from them. Give them a call. Give them your VIN number. It seems that the plant sent the build sheets to them after production.

Dave, I tried the Corvette museum last year and they told me that they didn't have enough information on my car to produce a window sticker. I just got a copy of the dealer invoice from the GM Media Archive and Triple A Enterprises can do the sticker if I can get them a copy of an original XLR-V sticker.

Steven,
Did you see this link on the site and check with them on your car? Documentation of Your Vehicle Quote:

That is where I got the idea. They provided me with a copy of the dealer invoice, but do not do the window sticker. They had a link to a company, Triple A Enterprises, that do the window sticker and they have the template for the XLR, but not the XLR-V. If I can find someone that still has a V sticker I can send them a copy of it along with the dealer invoice and they can make one to look like the original. Quote:

Just talked to Sharon at National Corvette Museum. (800-53VETTE) EX 157.
She said they can do window stickers for XLRs, but not Vs. She couldn't tell me why. They might have the original build sheet. If you give her you Vin number, see can look and see if they have it. I was told that since 2004, their car carrier, Allied, would take the build sheets off of the cars and send them to Allied main office. The main office would then send them to NCM.

Dave | I'm kind of curious why they can't do them for the XLR-Vs? XLRs and XLR-Vs were built on the same line. | |

Dave | Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either - especially considering that the car has been discontinued for a year now.

Dave | I just spoke to Sharon at NCM and she was able to find the build sheet on my XLR. She is sending me the build sheet and a Window Sticker reproduction.
Thanks for the information, Dave.

Mission accomplished. Thanks Kevin for putting me in contact with Bobo. He sent me a copy of his XLR-V window sticker which I forwarded along with the dealer invoice and ordered a sticker for my car. I found out last year that the Corvette Museum couldn't do "V" stickers. Don't know what the difference is, but now there is a way to get one for any of the V owners out there.
