Found out today that while the shop was working on my 914-6, one of the flunky's remove & destoyed my sticker from the door-jam. I had made it Perfectly Clear that this sticker was not to be touched and to be protected during the restoration. But now it's gone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
I was told that you can get them from Porsche? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I know that George sells replicas, but how do you get them perforated? Pissed & confused in Tampa, T.C. |

I would think making the VIN perforations could be done with some practice and by making a jig with the number layout, but the anti-tamper circular impressions would be harder. Or does the Auto Atlanta stickers already have those? JIM a check canceling machine should be able to punch the sticker. Several years ago a guy sent me a pic of one our our stickers that he punched and it looked perfect. Too bad I did not get his name!!! If having to paint the door jambs it is much better to replace the sticker than to tape it off! Tape off looks very messy and would fail the concours inspection. Couple of questions George; Your replica stickers are smooth and don't have the circular impressions correct? Those seem more of a problem that the perforations. I understand about the tape-off, but I think that an original sticker with some overspray/mess is much better than a non-original looking sticker, Yes? T.C. |
