What's is considered a permanent part of a vehicle? It seems like there are some people etching the VIN on the heat shield but I don't see any evidence of that deterring thefts.

I mean “permanent” in a general sense. It varies by manufacturer. For most common cars, manufacturers put the VIN on a few places on the frame of the vehicle.
