I'm in for a black one for my 76. I'm also interested in finding a replacement silver "Non-Catalyst" sticker that resides next to it.

These are great, but has anyone found a way to recreate the security circles which cover the wee beasties?

still working on the security circles, It may come down to just punching the VIN data only and leave the the circles to those who purchase them. So many things to go wrong like separation before it can be applied and burn thru a lot of decals.
I hope to make on decision on this in a few weeks and open up the order thread. Thanks for your patience |

I don't want the security circles as my 1970-4 does not have them . I can rest my worries now about the return to factory colors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

decked them and then time to sharpen a bit. Left myself some length so as it dulls I can deck it again and re-sharpen.
Now to find my stash of vinyl to test how much pressure is required (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

not a bad result but I need to sharpen it little bit more and add a bit more pressure but I think it will work great for those that want them

Hey Andy,
I saw in the thread's pix that the blank label has square corners, but my original sticker is rounded in the same way as the silver line border edge with round corners - but just a few mm's out. Maybe you could use the semi-circle punches for the anti-tamper cuts to do each corner to get it exactly as original with rounded corners? It looks like the early silver ones were rounded corners too, from the pix of original VIN labels in this post. Here is mine & a pic of the repro one which you posted above for comparison, so you can see what I mean. My original VIN sticker in black over the original L80E (COA & physical evidence on car verifies Light Ivory), & under the 3 repaints (Sahara Beige or tinted primer pre-11/75 both by PO/OO or dealer, Gold met. pre-11/75, L99K Copper met. 8/76 by me, & dark grey/Anthracite met. 5/80 by me) - which were carefully lifted off the sticker with acetone & Q-tips/sof cloths last year.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-10181-1321918926_thumb.jpg) VS..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c767170.r70.cf2.rackcdn.com-11660-1333480329.2.jpg) . Also, can you please post the link to the buy thread here? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I searched in Member Vendors, Parts FS & Garage, but can't find it - even though I recall seeing it before with your link to get to the PDF form online.

I'll be in for one of the /6 stickers for5 my 911 when I can pinpoint the production date. It looks great and way easier than punching my own.
Thanks |

Re square corners:
The sticker is meant to be trimmed to a 1/16" border with rounded corners. This is intentional as the printer would have charged alot more money for post printing trimming. I wanted to keep the price reasonable and inspire the crafty person in all of us. |
