tungsten grey `gt turbo` side decals

ok lady`s me and dave aka -topcat- have gone about getting the tungsten grey side decals remade. we have had some success too! we are aiming at getting 10 sets made to get them for a reasonable price.

we have had these coppied from an original set of o.e.m renault decals. the copies are very good and we will post a picture up as soon as a complete set has been produced. they look spot on and i strongly belive you wont be able to tell which one`s which.

it would be nice to start a list / group buy on these as the money is coming out of our pockets. if theres any questions pm me and we will reply as soon as we can.

a full set ie . driverside , passengerside ,rear quarters and front lower wings


- £95-


this should be the best quality and cheapest around.

cheers

I believe the pearly ones are different Westy. Mike has OE decals though. I will look into the other decals in due course, but want to walk before we can run. Will keep you posted though mate.

Yeah I just don't fancy paying the £200 odd quid for them

I've been looking at the pearly pics on google and they look the same as the white/tungy decal. I'm sure one of the guys on here will know for sure if they are the same. Maybe even give renault parts department a call, they'll tell you.

I'm jealous you have a pearler!! Care to swap? Lol

Have PM`d Scotty as well but really want a set as thats all that I need to finish off a fully restored GTT.Shes sat under a cover just waiting and waiting for the decent weather to come.. :)

Evening chaps, apologies for the slight delay. The printer is unable to meet me tonight, but I am 100% meeting him tomorrow. Pictures will be posted ASAP.

It's unfortunate, but I want to make sure these decals are 100% correct before sending these out to you all.

Watch this space- there will be an update tomorrow evening after work.

Best regards- Davo

We're uploading pics of the complete set off a car and on a car before we take any money mate.

We want to make sure everybody is 100% happy with them before we send them out. We don't want to take your money without an ETA on when you're likely to receive them.

Ill be taking some pics this afternoon- on and off the car (pending weather)

Any questions, feel free to contact myself or Scotty.

***We will be attempting the decal for other coloured 5's eventually****

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

Maybe a daft question but how does the decal differ from a white/tungy car to a black car?

And yes deffo interested in a set for my black car :)

Bank holiday weekend has slowed the progress til Wednesday next week. It's been a long drawn out process- basically all the spare time I've had has been to sort these out. I'm taking my car up Wednesday and fitting a set so pics can be taken of what they look like fitted.

Should be available I'm hoping the end of next week. It takes 90 minutes to print one full set for a car.

As soon as these are readily available we will let u know ASAP.

They should 99% accuarate to OE spec. So well worth the wait chaps.

looks like these are going to be ready just in time for when my cars in paintshop :)

the final result , colours a bang on . we are really pleased with the results! one full set is completed and pictures will be posted up very soon .the first set are being fitted to daves five tomorrow :agree:then people are welcome to start purchaseing if there happy with the pictures:D

Me too cash waiting

Good job:agree:
Looking forward to the classic style ones for my red car

Top job lads. Well done!!

I still want two sets please. One for my 5 when it's sprayed and one set to sit in my parts bin in the loft :)

Evening chaps.

Decal kits will be on sale Wednesday 10th April. Ten are currently available- it will be a first come first serve basis. Scott will be loading a photo of how they look on my car.

Any questions PM me or Scott.

*** We will have more printed if demand is there***

***All orders to be sent to Scotty***

Is the photo being put up 2day?

Pm on its way Scotty thanks :)

right here we have it ladies.


as dave has stated there are 10 up for grabs , we will post a picture of a complete set befor the sale starts.

WEDNESDAY 10TH APRIL

i will accept the first 10 pm`s and payment details will be sent out to the 10 that pm me not dave.

pm (r5_scotty) as im sending these out

if anyone is unhappy i will refund there money but if they have been peeled/opened/damaged there will be no refund.

please no timewasters alot of effort has gone into these.

£95 + £4 postage

im happy if people want to collect:agree: postage is to the uk any international buyers please let me know.


we will get more done once the first 10 are sold

any questions just ask

trying to upload pictures but having difficulty

Good work lads.I paid 200 for originals just before this was anounced.:mad:

Top job lads. Really good work :)

Not trying to rock the boat but shouldn't the decals be offered initially to the first 10 people who put their names down on the list at the beginning of this thread??

Just a thought....

Since that list was made a couple of people dropped out fella. Everyone on that list who still wants a set will 100% get a set.

the trouble is like what dave says people drop out.and we needed to make sure there was defently 10 people who would want them befor we set to work or we would have wasted our time and money. iv had pm`s from lot of people now so how about this , i will post the list up and if people on the first list can confirm they are defently having a set then they will 100% get a set. fair???

just stick yes next to your name if you defently want them.

so ie.

- 1. r5_scotty yes

we will get more done once the first 10 have gone. we have to sell in high sets due to cost.

Probably going to make myself unpopular here but aren't you getting a little ahead of yourselves, you are asking peeps to make a decision on something that they have not even seen yet. It seems the demand is there and everybody is excited and grateful that good and relatively cheap copies are now becoming available but i suspect you will generate greater demand when you get some good quality pictures up.

Fair point tho.

It's great that this has been achieved and I for one am very great up to both the lads for sorting this. And they did say above that if anyone is unhappy with the product then they will refund fully. You can't argue with that.

Also I am sure they will put pics up for people to see before Wednesday.

And yes I def still want a set...:)

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/...986/photo3.jpg

Prob gona get shot! For this but they don't look right to me, pretty close tho

I think they look bang on i am sure the lads had them copied off originals

they have been copied off originals! they are spot on. most people look at there 25 year old decals not originals. we are sorting pictures of the new decals against the new originals. cheers chris for bangin the pics up.

if your not sure on them please dont buy them !!!

all coments a fine. its good to get peoples views

Look great. Will more become availble for sale?

could do with someone with a white five fitting these so they would be clearer and could get a better photo so you can see the correct fade .

there isnt many printer/scanners that can copy these. so you can imagen how much of a pain these were. the original decals were put onto a white back ground and copied many times. so these really are as good as the originals

depending on how these 10 go. if all sell and everyone is happy then me nd dave will pay to get more done. its just alot of money to buy more than 10 at a time out of our own pocket. but we are happy to do it if everyone is serious .

Think it's cos I've seen them where the background fade is brighter like this, hope jonny dusnt mind me posting a pic of his awesome 5

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/...5F495BF187.jpg

No offence to you guys tho you have done a great job, I think the renault ones were altered anyway so not sure wot they should look like

will try get better pics. his is in the shade. daves was in the sunlight :agree:

Thanks Chris. The quality pic isn't great as I only have my iPhone. The car had been washed and waxed that day hence alot of reflection off the stones etc on the ground.

As said before- these have been copied off the originals supplied by Scott from renault. Also the fade and colour etc will change depending on the colour behind the decal (as they're supposed to).

Ultimately everyone has a choice- £95 from us or £200 plus from Renault. :)

I would say the fade is correct and mine are wrong.
They're not genuine decals btw, the only copies that were avaliable a few years ago :)
From what i can see you guys have done a really really good job :agree:
Very very close to the pic below which i know for a fact are o.e

http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0a8cdbe2.jpg

Cheers johnny I think u have the same after market version i used to have on my car.

Please bear in mind we have had original renault decal and spent hours and hours matching these. It's taken best part of 2 months to do

Nothing secret, just not got round to putting a build thread up yet as in twos minds and wasn't sure if anyone will be able to handle a thread over loaded with 1080hd pictures :laugh:

If it helps, I've got two and I wash my newest one for the first time today. :cooter:

They look great, def will have better contrast on a white 5 :D

Regards to the previous comments, I would only add that they do appear to be a little shallow, I.e. top to bottom hight/length if anything. :cool:

They only look that way cos my car had lacquer peel so we moved it above it to fit it chap. These have been cut to the same size as the renault ones we have. :)

And yes 100% the fade will stand out more on a white 5 alot clearer which is the case with the genuine decal. Hopefully someone in the first 10 buyers has a white 5 and will load up some pics when they fit them

***ive offered up the size of the decal to the OE renault ones. They are 100% identical size***

If there are any sets left at the end of the month (pay day), I will have a set from you and fit them to my white 5. I'll keep an eye on the thread and watch for availability ;)

These look great :)

All the hard work is done, it's all about the presentation now. Side by side pics of OE vs these ones, both on the transfer paper and on the tungy and white cars will seal it for most I'd say :agree:

Cheers Trev, ill post pics up of the OE ones next to the replicas as soon as the sets are with me Wednesday.

They look superb. We've agreed to refund people if they aren't happy with them (as long as they haven't been peeled off). So at least people have peace of mind that they can be returned if they don't like the look of them when they arrive. We can't be fairer than that.

In my opinion these are a lot closer to renaults decals than the ones that were previously on my car. I'd say they are 99% accurate to renault decals.

sorry for the delays . contacting the first 10 people. dave has been in the hospital today so havnt been able to meet up and collect the decals to take photos and post out. this will be tomorrow now.

we will start posting them out tomorrow. and as for dave (if anyones worried) his all good. :agree:

pm for the people that need one

all 10 pm`d with payment details. £95+£4 delivery.

we will start posting tomorrow for those who have paid:agree:

With all these copies/snides floating about does that mean the originals are even more desirable.:dearme:

Dont get me wrong i think its good you have gone out of your way but i dont understand copying something thats still available,especially so they can be passed off as originals.:bothered:

there not availible anymore. pop down renault nd ask. i belive someone has brought up the last lots of them. so copies are good now matey. and no ones wants to spend 200quid . these are half the cost and exatly the same .

Thats my point.There should be a difference between the fakes and the originals.Isnt that the whole point.I have original decals to go on but now im thinking what is the point.Im sure the originals are still available from mike.:disagree:

I can't quite see your logic here if I am honest. Renault want £200 for some decals. Two members have gone out of their way to get them for done for £100 delivered. Put your decals on and be happy mate :) if not- sell yours for £200 as genuine originals and buy some of these for £100. Thus making yourself a profit. :agree:

I have an original OE gear knob still in its renault packaging. I def wouldn't care if someone started knocking out copies that looked bang on. I'd be happy that a relatively rare part was available again brand new :D

This isn't a dig by the way- just my opinion. :smokin:

cheers :agree:

the main reason it started as dave wanted a set on his tungy and i wanted a set for a white five . so we worked together to make these happen. plus not everyone has 200 quid to throw at decals. 100 quid is enough, and it will help alot of people have there five back to o.e looking.again i cant see the issue???

as said sell yours on, get some copies. no one will no the difference.

We'll assume you won't want a set then Casper?

Just my opinion lads.:agree:

Yeah, there nasty copy's, some one drop out and not buy a set, £100 to cheap, you wouldn't want them!


Now, who's guna drop out so I can buy there set! :laugh: :D

It's alright not all have paid. So there's probably a set there for you. Got a few people wanting them that ain't in the 10 on the list. So if by Monday we ain't herd from them I will offer them out to others who are interested.

Recorded delivery is tracked...

Welcome Benjer. Hope you like em :) pics of the full kit are being loaded

It's all a con. Because you get a tracking code, people assume it's tracked. The only tracking info you get it, is when it's been sent, and when it's been delivered. There's nothing to say where it is, or where it's traveled. So if it gets lost, tough.

Recorded Delivery items are not kept separate from other mail, unlike Special Deliveries - Which are treated like gold dust, and scanned/signed for, by everyone who comes into contact with them.

Trust me - I'm a Postman :laugh:

Royal Mail special delivery is the way forward then?

If ever you're sending anything of any importance/value, then use Special Delivery. It's not 100% bang on, but it's Royal Mail's flagship service, and if we feck up on a Special (loose it, damage it, leave it with a neighbour without permission, sign for it), we can get sacked on the spot. Therefore, everybody tends to look after them :laugh:

If anything happens to a Recorded - Oh well! :scared:

I never use Recorded, unless specified to by the recipient. It's the biggest waste of money service out there.

had a few payments as a gift and a few that wasnt . would be great if people could gift as we aint making money on these through the club.

the postage we have done as cheap as possible to help. paypal fee`s on these are £4.57 so we are losing our own money.

if your worried and dont want to gift can we be a pain and ask for £103.57

if you can gift then its still £99 or send a cheque:agree:

sorry guys

That's good to know fella. Thanks for the info!

i was a postie too mate not now so i know how it works the recording delivery system is a very basic tracking system yes it lets ya know when they were posted, and when they were delivered not the bits inbetween it does travel with the main post but still has a tracker on it

A tracker that you can't track :D

If it doesn't get signed for, then you have absolutely no idea where it is. All it'll say is when it was posted. What good is that? :laugh:

Sorry, there was no mention of payment type when I ask for payment details in my pm.

I've now re sent the money and been charged extra £3.57 anyway, as well as now annoyingly got the refund of the first £99 I sent stuck on temp hold via PayPal. :rolleyes:

Anyway, done now. :)

Thanks Andy. I'm looking at the red ones this morning with the sign man to see what we can do. Can't promise we can do it, but ill give it a good go mate.

To all the people who have paid- Thank you. Your decal sets are being posted this afternoon.

That's great mate! Do we know wot the original colours are?

I didn't get charged anything extra for paying via a gift to friend or family either.

I may be wrong but its charging you for using your card but if you have money in your pay pal account already then you don't get charged i think :confused:

if you use the mobile app you will be charged if you use a lappy or desktop you wont dont ask why its like that but it is

I used to get charged and it was because my bank account wasnt linked to my paypal account.Paypal pay 1pence into your account along with a number that you need to use inorder to link the two together.I now no longer get charged wether it:agree:s on mobile,laptop etc.

this has been my experience anywayz i use the lappy now to send money as it gives more options and a few are fee free but i never get the same options on my ipone paypal app

I have no idea what's going on, that's all I get on my screen when logged in. :confused: it use to have "gift" option there, but now it doesn't? Maybe it's just me, who knows? I'm reading it as, if I've have money sitting in PayPal, then its free. But if not and it takes it from the bank as usual like when buying eBay goods, then it charging me? :scratch: I've previously hit my limit on the account before for to much selling activity via eBay shop and other car forums, so maybe just unlucky and its some how linked.

Anyway, back on topic, GIVE ME MY STICKERS! :laugh::cool:

To All Members who have paid

Decal sets have been sent via Royal Mail special delivery. Tracking numbers will be private messaged shortly.

They will be with you all on Monday.

Davo

Hickman I have your tracking number but your inbox is full. :D

Once people see how good these are and cheap I reckon you will easily clear another 50 sets. Mark them up and eBay them.
Well done guys.nice to see the whole sticker idea pulled off.

This is what I think, I really don't think you need to worry too much about making your money back, if they are as good as said then they will be winging their way all over very soon.

Well mine arrived today from the little look I've had I'm very happy with them top job lads :agree:

everyone should be happy:agree: post some pics up :D

Cheers for the comments chaps. I hope all members like them.

Pearl is different mate. I have a pearl and bought some decals for a white 5 as that was all I could get from Renault. But then if the guys decide to duplicate the correct decals for a pearl I would be up for a set :agree:

http://i1241.photobucket.com/albums/...b475d6351b.jpg

http://i1241.photobucket.com/albums/...7aa55c1e38.jpg

Received mine today too. Super service. Cheers lads.

Not took mine out of the packaging yet as I want to keep them in minty mint condition for when my 5 has been sprayed. And I have the fun of peeling my old ones off yet too :confused:

I think, like mentioned above, you will have no issue shifting these if you bung them on eBay with a profit margin included. They should fly :p and remember I invested £1 in your business venture so I expect a regular profit payout ;)

So the next question, any tips for fitting these so that they go on well with no bubbles etc??

Aren't they already on eBay? http://bit.ly/Yz8nUK

They turned out great! :cool:

And for £95 you can't go wrong and it would be a crime to past up the chance even if your not going for the o.e. look at this price.

I would of happily paid more. :agree:

Personally when the time finally comes to apply these, I would recommend getting them fitted by a sign writer company, nothing worse then ending up with wonky stickers! :ashamed:

Feel free to steal my pics for your eBay add if you need to. I've put a close up of the fade to help people who are thinking of ordering a set to make their mind up. :cool:

Best to fit with body kit on or off???

I'd say off personally as I think they over hang slightly, but nothing a sharp blade won't sort if you decide against. :D

i would fit with the kit off to get em right :agree:

Thanks for the positive comments lads :)

I'm glad they turned up early and even happier that you are all happy with your purchases.

Fitment wise- I would recommend that you find a local decal specialist to fit them.

Also get a specialist to remove any existing decals you may have.

Remove or loosen your arches to fit the decals properly, original ones were fitted before the arches were fitted.

And finally! The decals are the correct height- they do not meet at the line of the quarter or the door. They sit just below it as the original ones did :)

cheers for the big pics :agree: thats what we wanted! we both dont have a decent camera to have done that.

the ones we done for the club we done with no profit so there will be some on ebay so we can make a few pennys:agree:

well we need a little help as somewhere along the line the red decals are a little different. so we could do with some o.e pics of red fives . evan better a pic of an unfitted set. evan better than that borrpwing a set so we can get em bang on. or if someone would sell us a set to copy. i know a few of you have em but will you part with them to help the club.

cheers

Are you still decals for a black car?

And yes the white ones look superb :)

will do. just isnt the demand for them is the trouble

Regarding other decals- We need to buy in bulk (10 or more)

Unless we can sell 10, The production won't be happening on the black ones. But we'll sort the red ones out first and see what we can do

Recieved my decals this morn they are simply superb near as damn it spot just ordered a 2nd set of Scotty for the future as they`re that good if I was round your manor would buy you both a beer thanks a lot for taking the time out to sort these out and for saving me a few quid as the advert says every little helps and it sure does owning a Gt Turbo..:)

I didn't realise those were the ones you guys had done that are on ebay...I was the fella who asked you to take a close up photo of the red fade, I was trying to see if they were anywhere as good as the ones you had done on here :laugh:

If nobody has snapped your ebay set up by the end of the month, I'll have them. Just need to wait until another payday comes along ;)

yea there ours :D trying to get some money for em now. still a bargin at £135 in my opinion

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/...5D99D8201D.jpg

I've got this pic nicked off another thread, I'm sure ppl have loads of other pics of red cars, looks like a black dot fade with silver/grey lettering?? Hope it's original graphics in this pic. Reno change it to all the same colour grey which in my opinion looks pants

I pretty sure these make raj's ones look bad, his were like a square fade rather than dots.. These look better..

great stuff:D glad evryone is happy:agree: the effort has paid off.

Andy I think you're right. We're in the process of these with a black background with a white GT turbo and fade.

It's tricky with the white fade cos it comes out pink if not screened right :/

Thanks for the pic by the way :agree:

Did yours arrive today Dave?

Maybe the club may have an interest and stock them?

Apologies TC :D

Funny as I saw Goher's old car (which I think is the one on the Azevs) about 5mins later when browsing other threads, lol.

Got to say you boys have done a flippin' ace job by the looks of it. Great stuff.

I'm getting 5 more decal sets tomorrow- 4 are sold already chap. So if you want a set contact R5 Scotty ASAP mate. We don't know when we will be getting anymore.

Drat...looks like I'll be missing out. Can't afford any until pay day (30th April). Looks like I'll have to settle for one of those French copies on the French eBay site :cry: ;)

Well mike has shown some interest but understandably wants to see some copies first hand before he commits to buying any.

Don't suppose there's a set still kicking around at all? I've finally got some money!!

That's what I did with the first run of decals. One for my 5, the other for my parts bin lol.

Things are developing with the decals- Mike has shown interest in buying some. If Mike decides to buy the decals then we will ask all members to buy them through mike.

Scott and I will keep you all posted :)

Do you know what the price will likely be if this happens mate? Ta

Sorry, just read your comments in the red decal thread.

put my name down, where do i send the monies :)

As many of you may have read I have been approached to stock the copy Decals that are being produced by Topcat and R5 Scotty.

What this means is I am fronting the money to get the stock. The people on the list will be given first dids on them and at the agreed price. I am planning on collecting the Decals the middle of next week.

So if you are on the list can you please send payment to:-

gtturbospares@gmail.com

Over the weekend confirming your Full name and address. So I can start the ball rolling. If I don’t receive payment they will be offered to others.

If all runs smoothly this will mean Topcat and R5 Scotty can concentrate efforts on producing the other colours. If we are let down buy non-paying members this will not happen.

RTOC members will be looked after but there will be an extra charge added for non-members. This might encourage more new members!!!

Many thanks Mike

Hi mike does this still stand for the red car decals, are they been produced now or is there still not enough members?

Think Mike is saying that forget the lists of ten etc, he is going to front the cost of getting more sets made and then stock them.
Red and others colours too eventually, by the sounds of it :)

Reds decals are still being tweeked but yes I will do the same for both sets.:agree:

Hey How much will the decals be...

Great outcome chaps :agree::)

Yes £110 inc the delivery to mainland Uk addresses.

Thanks Mike

After payment when are they available? From now on??

That's the plan but only one person has paid up so far not a good sign.

Any news on how the red sets are coming on?

It'll be the start of June when I can pay, so as soon as I have the cash I will check that there are still sets available. Did I read that they will be going on eBay as well?

Went a collected Tungsten Decals from Dave over the weekend so they are now in stock and ready to go at £110 to RTOC members inc delivery to Mainland UK. The people on the list have first dibs there after any RTOC member. If RTOC members don't pay up I will ofer then elsewhere to cover costs. Dave and Scotty are close to finishing the Red ones.

If this goes to plan they will start work on the other colours but need people on the lists to pay up.

Many thanks Mike

You have got to give it time mate these things don't happen over night. Alot of effort has gone into getting these right, davo and Scotty didn't have to put all this effort in, there helping the club out no end by producing these reps. If you look at the red decal thread mike is keeping it updated with the progress on them and I know that he will sort everyone out on the list with decals. Credit where credit is due pal

110% agree with you on the high level of effort from the guys, been a long time coming someone doing a decent set and this is top! I will have a set, but not keen of having to go through GTTSpares all the time and not receiving replys

CB

We're in the process of finishing off the red decals (slow progress due to the chap who does them being on holiday for 10 days).

It really is a slow drawn out process fella, it took 3 months to do the grey decals and that was with a original renault grey decal as a sample and a tungy car to fit them on as a sample.

I can assure you all of us are working hard to get these red ones done. So we can move onto the next decal sets.

I believe the red sets should be sorted by early next week- as soon as they are done I imagine mike will be asking us to develop the black ones.

Patience is a virtue chap. I know it's frustrating waiting for your ones to be ready, we can only do one set at a time.

Alternatively, mike has grey decals on the shelf, the only difference between them and the ones for the black car is the shade of grey is a bit lighter. Could be worth considering :agree:

Given the graft so far, its 100% worth waiting for proper black varients pal..

Perhaps I should be a little more clear, cannot praise you guys enough for the effort, if only you could do gear knobs ha.. !

It's just Mike I'm a bit cheesed at, why take over everything decent, the wanted thread may as well be a direct feed to mikes inbox, no one gets a chance to sell anything anymore. Seeing countless 5's being murdered for cash, a dying breed..

CB

In mikes defence I was at his yard on Sunday, there was 20 5's and a Renault 11.
The ones that were being broken were completely ruined and pretty much no chance of survival.

The ones that were being saved in my opinion were also no good but he's saving them and they are not being broken up.
Most of his spares come with the cars he buys up.

There was a load more too and only one being broken up, which was rotten so bad all over.

I agree mike is a top bloke, starting a witch hunt on here for him will come back to bite you on the arse!!

:agree:

Mike took over the decals mate due to me and Scott not having the time to post out to everyone 1 at a time, the packaging and posting the first batch took us ages & due to work commitments Scott and i didn't have the time. We approached Mike (he didnt approach us) as we thought he could buy in bulk and make it easier and quicker for members to buy, thus making different colour decals available quicker.

To be honest matey if it wasn't for mike the red decals wouldn't even be getting made,
It's only because he's guaranteed to buy the 10 sets (the minimum i can get printed per go)
That the red sets are happening.

Check the gearknob stickers I had made (not the ones on eBay mine are completely different)- these are available fella- but I'm out of stock.

This isn't the positive feedback section.. Jeez ! :laugh:

Speaking from my own experience thats all, didnt know I was going to get "teeth marks on my arse" :crap:

:smokin::smokin::smokin:

going to be looking out for them on a re-stock ! :agree:

Mike's business has a huge knock-on benefit for the members of this club (and non-RTOC owners of GTT's).

Parts for the GTT are becoming harder and harder to source. They are scattered to the four corners of Europe and his business centralises a lot of what is still available out there. He stocks no end of new/reconditioned parts some that have previously been reported on RTOC as 'no longer available' and the ever-ready stock of 2nd hand parts has been invaluable for a lot of member rebuilds (and for the recycling of otherwise scrap parts).

I say thank goodness it makes business sense for him to continue, the benefit of having spares available at reasonable prices and the part that plays in keeping GTT ownership in the UK a viable proposition, is priceless.

i know a few people have contacted me on the decals now ,as soon as we have more info on the red decals we will post up.

as stated mike is a busy guy and im sure he will contact everyone as soon as he can. as dave said he has the tungy/white decals in stock and ready to purchase. the red decals are slowly being sorted:agree:

if you cant get hold of mike for the decals drop me a pm and i will happily contact him.please only do this if you defently want them.

People are keen to get the Red ones and to make a start on the Black ones, I have also have a request for the Electric Blue Phase 2 ones and of course all the Phase 1 colours. Thanks MIke

keep up the good work guys and mike you know I will be after a set for the black 5

Can't agree more excellent work I am also waiting for a set for a black 5..

Fitting.
Any one fitted these yet and care to jot down a few notes for me please. :)
Arches off?
Fold around doors?
Trim ,cut. ?
Fade from top to bottom. Etc

I'll start off.

1. Don't attempt to fit yourself hungover in a Gail. You will ruin one.
2. Find a decal fitting shop in your area.
3.. ........


Thank you

Same here a few hints would be great got a set off Topcat ages ago and haven't had a look as yet as don't wanna cock it up..Really don't want to take of bodykit to fit if I can help it though..:)

Trims gotta come off or loosened and pulled forward to do it right.:agree:

Maybe they could be cut bang on wear they meat the arches?
I wouldt recomend you attempt to fit them yourself unless your competent.

Do the door strips fold around the doors slightly ? They seem a tad too long.

Yes they do mate, as standard anyway

Yeah they do- reason being is the ones from renault actually fall short of covering the door. So we made them longer (as I wanted my door completely covered).

This way you have a choice, cut them and fold them around the door or cut them short like renault.

:)

Do the sills need to come off to get the rear arches off? I can't remember

No mate they sit above the skirts. Loosen the arches warm water and a card to move the air bubbles. Ill take some pics of mine if u want me to email u them. Be tomorrow now though fella

how many of you guys have actually fitted these?

mine were fitted yesterday/today everything was going fine all fitted and looked the business and then we come to remove the protective covers off them all i can say is it wouldnt hardly budge even with some heat on them was leaving glue behind and lifting the sticker back off :(, so it looks as if im going have to remove them and have the bottoms of my doors etc re painted not happy at all

Ah, that's a bit ****.

Bummer.

Wait for TC and the others who've had these fitted to come back with ideas before doing anything Blunty.

Surely the worst that could happen though is that the stickers are pulled off and the glue removed with some suitable chemical?

thats the thing if i remove the stickers it will pull the paint off. obviously the glue the protective cover was leaving could be removed but i honestly dont dare to try and remove anymore as it just seems get tougher

That sucks, do you think the fresh paint hadn't helped? Do feel for you tho :(

No way...am going to fit mine after my respray........:cry:

the actual decals look fantastic cant fault them, its just the protective film thats not playing ball at all, so id say the paint really wouldnt matter in that aspect.

Hello chaps- what's happened? I'm not really understanding the protective cover? We don't put covers on the front of the the decals.

Blunty PM me mate and tell me what happened.

Cheers TC

Keep us posted as to what has happened chaps. I'm finally looking at purchasing a set when I can get in contact with Mike, so would like to know what has possibly gone wrong. Hope it gets sorted out for all concerned.

pm sent

all sorted now guys, spoke to tc on the phone and been informed that they dont have a film over the top its just a case of sticking them and getting the bubbles out job done.

i will just say it wasnt my decision to remove what was thought to be a top film it was already happening before i knew about it, as when you look down the one side thats been done and nothing removed looks perfect

so panic over guys at least someone has made the balls up so you dont have to :laugh:

may i also add what a top fella topcat is a real credit to the club :agree:

Cheers Blunty. Glad it's all sorted and the 5 will be looking the nuts :)

Get some pics up when the decals are on.

thanks again davo really good of you fella

its going to be a few weeks now until anymore gets done, as my mate goes in for heart surgery this coming tuesday so im stuck until he goes back work, the original plan was get the decals on,waxoyl then fit side skirts, mot and tax it monday then all was sorted.

Well done guys for sorting out the confusion so qucikly...that's what makes this club great in my opinion :agree:

Does anybody know if Mike is around? I'm ready to buy a set but just want to make sure they'll be with me by Wednesday as I want to get them fitted for Sundays retro show :)

I'm seeing mike tomorrow mate, will let him know you want a set and get him to contact u :agree:

Thanks mate...I've sent him a Facebook message as well. Got a bloke lined up to fit them for me on Wednesday ready for the weekend :)

Really glad to hear this has been sorted. :)

That fitting guide (as mentioned in related threads), needs to be park of the package at the point of sale :agree:

Just a quick question lads, has anybody fitted their decals themselves without expert help? Looks like I will not be able to fit mine until Friday now and I want them ready for Sunday. However, the friend I had lined up to help me who does vehicle wrapping can't make it. So I'm thinking of doing it myself.

Anybody have any tips please?

Thanks

I should have added, there's no way I can get my body kit off. The arches have been fitted using grip fill (or similar) and aren't going anywhere!!

Best tip mate is get a specialist to it them. Its not worth ruining them and having to buy a second set. It costs between £35-£50 and its well worth it :agree:

I always get the body work chap at the paint shop to fit mine and our customer's ones. When I watched him there is an art to getting all the air bubbles out. Also the correct tools :D

There's a place not far from me who wanted £35 And an hour to fit. Sadly they are fully booked up for the next couple of weeks so off to birkenhead to wrapping shop Friday morning at a cost of 60 :(

Just ordered my decals from Mike, and I've found somebody local who wraps vehicles (amongst other things) and he's going to fit them for me at home. His fee? Lots of cups of tea, not bad hey ;)

Can't wait to get them on the car!

:mad:

Sorry mate...pity you're not nearer to me, perhaps I could have convinced him to fit two sets!!

There is another decal fitter closer but he didn't fill me with confidence and I'd rather get it done proper.

Spot the difference.

You could have lined them up better :wasntme:

The new ones are really are flippin' fantastic.

If your question on differences is genuine, perhaps the colours on the new ones appear slightly richer all over than the originals? Or is it the angle/flash of the camera, or perhaps the age of the originals?! In any case, who cares, they are awesome :)

I was shaking like a sh*tting dog when I lined them up.... ;)

Yeah the age has faded the originals, but the difference in colour is mainly down to the flash

Any idea when you are making a start on decals for a black 5 ?

It's supply to the demand mate. We done the red sets as there were 10 people who wanted them. Mikes been effed around with buyers and only sold a handful.

Minimum club buy is 10 sets. :) start a thread up, it might get the ball rolling

Not the cheapest things around 110 for stickers ,they are 170 for o.e ,I think that's what puts people of the price of them I mean 6years ago they were £75

If you think how long those Renault stickers have been sitting around though within Renault, a lot of them will be tatty and more than likely wont stick proper or peel off nicely off the backing.

Also from pictures of last group buy from Raj compared to these, the quality is so much closer to original with the fad pattern and for that reason then price will have to be higher as it was needed to use a different print technique to get it this close.

What does the price of OE decals in 2007 have to do with how much bespoke versions are in 2013? Weren't the OE ones over £200 last year? Wouldn't that be a more useful measure?

In any case, the vagaries of price v supply/demand are irrelevant, the point is, people agreed to buy them at the stated price, and have since pulled out, or so it would appear based on the posts above.

I'm just as saying that's all and people pulled cause of price ,that's why people didn't buy off mike that's my reason.

Getting my 2pence worth like you always do

Like we said before mate- no ones holding guns to heads to buy them. Last time we checked at Renault the were over £200. You can buy a set of originals off eBay for £170 but they won't be in brand new condition.

6 years ago fuel was 89 pence a litre.

People were told of the price before committing to buy. That price is delivered as well- Royal Mail special delivery is £8. Plus the money for packaging, plus the time of me, Scott or mike packaging them and going to the post office.

Bargain if you ask me :)

What was the difference between the original price of these new decals through TC and the price they are now sold at through Mike? I had thought it was minimal?

If it's about people putting their names down for something before the price has been set, and then pulling out when they realise the price is too much for them, then as long as it's done at the very first indication of what that price is going to be, then fine. Otherwise I'd put my name down for buying a new Faberge egg, then wait until they've spent all the time, money and effort in producing it and then pull out because it's eight million quid and I think it's too much for me.

I didn't say you shouldn't give your 2p's worth, I'm just asking that you clarify that it's value is in fact 2 pence. :agree:

EDIT: Interesting to note that if you were to buy an OE decal set from Renault in 2007 at £75 plus say £10 delivery, that comes to exactly £100 in today's money...

More bollox. Prices change with the times big whoop wanna fight about it? No.... Accept it

The copy's are good and once on I doubt the difference is noticeable... Pointless pointless bickering.

Not an opinion or 2 pence as your not allowed to think for your self anymore with out somebody getting offended or making sure there point is more valid.

It's a thread offering a product.

I was happy to pay 110 for the decals for my red 5, as they were not available new, other than the crappy light versions which are not the right ones. Good job

Thanks

I think the reality is that almost everyone here realises and appreciates the effort in making these and the value in what they are priced at. It's just a fact of life that there is always a minority who're of a different (usually difficult to understand) opinion.

Pay for what you get at the end of the day

Guys, are these still available?

I'm needing a new driver's side door and that could come in any colour other than tungsten, so a set will be useful.

Steve

Will do mate on this thread. I've decided to just stick it under a car cover, and store it in a friends garage. I'll decide again in the spring ;)

I think I meant the £100 copies. Looks like GTTS only have the £200 originals. That's a
huge extra for just a door. :eek:

Cheers,

I've pointed him toward my resto thread in my email, so we'll no doubt be talking
turkey at some point! It'll be much easier if I can deal with one source for most of the
bits I will need. Thanks for your help :cool:

Regards,
Steve

Back now. Been away on a school trip to Snowdonia. Barbara has tried to answer messages where possible. I will make my way through my inbox and pms.

Thanks Mike

You still trying to complete year 11 Mike.

Thanks mate- everybody who has bought a set has been more than happy. :agree:

To people with their arse in their hand about these being offered to the club shop- They were offered back in the Summer & the club politely turned down the offer as the club had spent available funds on the national day.

So, We approached Mike @ gt turbo spares, who agreed to front up the money for the grey and red car decals, Mike is the reason the decals for the red car were produced, if it wasn't for him none would have been made.

People's points of view are always listened to of course, but there are ways and means of going about doing this (a private message to myself, Scott or Mike would have been more prudent) I took the negative comments personally because Scott and I spent 50+ hours & numerous car journeys after working hours to getting these decals developed. I don't mind critique, but to be honest, if we knew the sh*t that came With doing these decals we wouldn't even entertain doing it for the masses again.

We donated 20 gearknob stickers to the club shop to help raise funds for it too.

Don't mind at all mate, your graphics were of an amazing quality and look the business. If you can still get some from Mike Va Va Voom, then snap them up. They are a bargain at half the price of OE ones.

Such a shame that people complained about the production of these, because it really was a great deal for RTOC members and a deal that so many more people could have benefited from.

I would also like to say that if the lads hadn't done this for the members, I still wouldn't have graphics on my car. So I really am grateful.

Anyone know what the tungy decals would look like on a black 5?
