Most backyard mechanics wont use the sticker because they know they did it, and usually have another source for records. The best way you may be able to visually tell is by the idlers, the bearing seals will darken over time, but when they're new they're bright (usually orange, I have seen some green ones) You could also look for tell tale signs of RTV, if there is any blue RTV (used most commonly for cooling items) someone has worked in the area. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1992 300ZX NA 5 Sp (Dead) 1990 300ZX NA Auto 2+2 (Dead) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 400 HP) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Est. 600 HP) 2004 G35 Sport 6MT (DD) 1969 Chevelle (Toy)
