So were getting very close, need to tighten up the numbers a bit. The seven on the build date was not a mistake but my friend matched the picture perfectly with the factory flaw. The power was a bit high for the vinyl so some tweaking there too.
second pic is decal applied to painted pannel. Die cutting is the last hurdle and then we can get this going and start taking orders. It's tidious work setting these up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) but it will be worth it!!! Attached thumbnail(s) |

Hey Andy, If you have a compliance sticker that has not been pulled yet but you would like to replace it, if you provide a photo can your guy match it like he did yours? My thought is there may be some differences in the numbers from year to year.
I may be incorrect but it is my understanding these are US only stickers possibly dealer installed. So were they punched and installed at the dealership or did they come over with the car? If they were punched at the dealership there may be a difference in the numbers or location. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) yes, we can create another project in the program for a possible difference in font, it just takes time to setup at test. |

I've seen both types of # 7 on the 911, although the one shown i've only seen on post my 74.

They look awesome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) !!! I may need 2 just because they look so cool!!!
Since my sticker is MIA, how does one determine the month/year of manufacture? .... (my model is 1973) |

So we got the font size correct and looks dead on. the lower sticker is the final font tweak and you can see the improvment I hope??
Comments welcome!! I will be starting and order thread soon . Die cutting is a delicate process and after some tests with my jig getting a clean peel to apply a complete sticker afterwords was tough. For now it will be stickers without the die cutting due to the difficulty. I will check with Rory on how he is doing on this piece Attached thumbnail(s) |

Any news on when you'll get the time to be ready for orders? I know you're restoring your six these days and I'm just amazed at your productivity. Makes me feel like a lazy slug! Gary |

The holes look a little big on the punches.
Are they not going to have the anti peal embossing? |

Best looking ones I've seen. Even without the anti-tampering rings, it looks great.
