|
|
right as some of you may have read myself and mdh1 have had a disscussion about vinyl kits ( i supplied all the neccessary info etc and marcus found the vinyl supplier ) and have we think found the pukka stuff originally used by vauxhall supplied from 3M as the name of the material matches the name printed on my originals
now i have a complete unused gm vinyl kit for a gte that i intend to use as a template to make pukka sized and style vinyls for a mk1
so what i`m after here is a copy and paste list of definate interested parties to see if it`s worth while approaching a printer to have the roll of vinyl i intend buying cut to size by there specialist equipment and also "astra gte 1.8 fuel injection" and the griffin added to the rear tailgate lower section ( this can be left blank if required for those of you wanting "astra 2.0 16v or turbo etc,etc if you so wish and you can get those made locally and add yourself if you so wish to save confusing the printer and causing more set up costs )
so if you would like pukka vinyl cut correctly to the template of my originals add your name below,obviously cost dependant at which time you are under no obligation to proceed but once you confirm and i get printing started i expect paid as i don`t need to do this as i have a full kit,this is for your benefit
due to set up costs i would think at least 10 interested before i approach anyone what do you think
p.s sr models could have a half kit i.e the pillars as i`m sure the tailgate isn`t vinyled on them or am i wrong

If you can buy it by the meter then i could be interested in just the vinyl...
I was a little bored so rang 3m myself but couldn't get through and had to take another call... _________________ Nurburgring - Not for girls |

i`ve got a screen printer i use regulary he`ll get it for me trade from 3M so i`m not worried about contacting them just now he`ll get me the required stuff and a good price hopefully
once all the measurements of mine are taken and added to a computer it then tells the machine what to do so i could get this saved by them for future reference onto disk aswell so that my originals can then be fitted to GTM but the info of them kept for the future |

Mark,
I think it maybe worth while finding out if this material is available?
And if so what sizes is it available in?
And of course if it is actually the same material!
Maybe a call to them would be a good starting point?
Don't want to get everyones hopes up do we
Cheers
Marcus
If it is the pukka stuff then put me down for 1 set |

already made a call to my printer he said if it`s on the website it is available and can get it,size wise he said it tends to be a bulk order i.e enough to make loads of sets so not really a one off option,he will get back to me with prices and hopefully a test sample aswell to compare against mine,from my description to him he say`s it should be identical but suggests changing a full kit as a match after years of sunlight abuse etc wouldn`t be possible probably so sound advice i think |

Valid point!
As mine will be returning to her former glory in black, silver wing stickers shall be required.
Thanks
