I think all that really matters is the VIN number. You can't change that on a car but you could change your plate to a custom vanity plate later too.
Well, they do put your plate on the form that comes with the stickers.

I bought a model 3 2 weeks ago, should I wait until jan 1 2020 to send in my check for the HOV sticker?
Or is it not true anymore that when the purple sticker expires, you can't renew and get a new one?
The HOV sticker program is now set up so you get 3-4 years of validity. If you apply now, you get a purple one that will expire on January 1, 2023. If you wait until late December to send in your application, you will get the next color and it will expire on January 1, 2014. After that, the car has no more HOV privilege.I bought a model 3 2 weeks ago, should I wait until jan 1 2020 to send in my check for the HOV sticker?

I removed some PPF I had on my doorsills and the adhesive was basically gone after that. Although, this was on a car where the PPF had been on it for a few years...
I got rear-ended today (the other driver fled - grr). There isn't much damage but I can feel small dents in the bumper. Contemplating replacing the bumper, but wondering if anyone had any luck transferring stickers on PPF to a new bumper. Waiting for new HOV stickers will be painful. I used PPF cut to size for the HOV stickers.
Typically 8-12 weeks to get the stickers. It used to be ~4 weeks before Model 3 sales really ramped up in 3Q 2018.
