Got my CHP inspection completed today.

After coming back from my trip, I called the CHP to make my appointment. I expected at least a couple of weeks' lead time, but they made my appointment for the very next day!
So I took my Atom in this morning, and they did the inspection and affixed a VIN plate to the car. The CHP officer was a little cynical about my being able to "get away with" driving the Atom on the street, but he went ahead and put the plate on anyway.
He said that the Brammo provided PIN didn't conform for VIN use, so he assigned me a new VIN for the car. I kinda expected that the PIN would suffice as the VIN, as I've heard others having been able to use their PIN as their VIN. Anyone else care to share their CHP inspection/VIN assignment experience?
