DOT/VIN stickers

Noob question here. All my other BMWs have VIN/DOT stickers on the panels and door jambs, thier presence sort of being an assurance that the panels are factory original. Now my new (to me) X5 has none of these...I assume because trucks do not conform to DOT regs for cars. Can anyone confirm this for me, or do you all have stickers and my X5 has been completely rebuilt? I hope not!

I know that one of my doors has been resprayed, and the edges of my hood seem to be peeling...primer seems to be showing on the edges inside the seam (can't see when shut). Trying to determine if its an original or resprayed hood.
