    Default *Sport owners, I present the Holy Grail! Pre-cut decals*

    As some of you may be aware I am in posession of an original Irmscher 3M decal set for a Sport.
    I heard a sign company was making replica decals that were good quality but fade and stripes were seperate and not pre cut.
    I approached the owner who said he was willing to replicate the pre-cut decals if he could use my decals as templates so I sent them off to him.

    I have recieved my original set back today undamaged and was also supplied with a brand new set of his decals, all I can say is...
    WOW!!!
    His standards have to be high as he supplies a lot of RS decals to the Ford boys and I am very picky about attention to detail as you may have seen from my project http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=68132. I am very impressed with the quality & the handle apertures have also been tweeked to fit with later doors as most people do not have originals now(He can also supply them for original doors)

    Anyway, here are some pictures for you to dribble over...









    As you can see, the cutting is to a good standard and radiused on the corners like the originals. Only thing I cannot check yet is the fit as its going to be a while before I fit them. I am sure they will be spot on and as good as 3M's/Irmschers as they have been copied from the orignals.

    They price is very reasonable, well a bargain at less than ?150 I think. It also can come with an abrasion guard to protect the finish.

    Anyone interested please email me at richardsillett@ntlworld.com so I can get a list of names & numbers to him.

    Oh, the fiddly little Sport decals for the quarters are also profile cut and put on backings to line them up correctly to stripes like originals.
    The Bonnet decal logo is also part of the sticker.

    3M aint interested anymore, I have been told they do not have the artwork either.
    They used old technology originally which they probably dont use anymore, these are produced in a more modern way

    Rich, going back to what we were talking about when you were at mine, will these fit the later size door handle, or are these as per the original decals, for early doors. Either way put me down for a set.

    Thanks iainel, was primarily just looking at the pictures Lol.
