    r5 gtt standard decals

    right there folks, ive been in touch with a graphics firm(dmb graphics) in bromsgrove(west midland area) who do replica graphics for fords old and new, i was reading up on a series 1 rs turbo feature the other day and noticed the graphics for this car has the same sort of colour fading effect as our gtt's, seeing as i havent had any luck with local graphics firms with the ability to do fading(can only do solid) i thought id get in touch with them, so far its been pretty positive but i will know more in the next few days, i have mentioned a group buy with them so i aint forgotten about u lot

    thing is i may need someone with standard decals attached to the car(mines off the road at the min) to maybe meet me at the actual graphics firm so they can get a sample

    any interest?

    Re: r5 gtt standard decals

    I think i may have 1 side of the decals kicking about somewhere. Just had mine refitted and place that put mine on said it would be impossible to get the faded dot effect for the shading as modern printers just dont do it. They wouldnt even be able to copy them apparently so id be interested to see if it can be done.

    Yep, hence the word "set". You can't buy the Phase 2 decals per side, it's all or nothing

    Re: r5 gtt standard decals

    went into a local number plate company to get some new plates made for my pulsar, anyway they do graphics too, while i was there he logged onto www.renault5gtturbo.com and showed him the cars from the gallery section, he says there shouldnt be a problem producing the decals but he is gonna wait till monday to see what his graphics boy is saying

    anyway if they can get the fade effect done well then im gonna go for a set, even if they cant do all them silly little dots

    will update further on monday

    update-

    provided examples of the graphics from gtt features in magazines to them, he seems confident they can pull it off, only time will tell

    With out wishing to tread on anybody's toes or anything, i have a set of original un fitted graphics that i borrowed at a local printers who used to work for 3m (the orginal printers)

    He is giving me a quote for 10,15,20 & 25 sets to be made up, the graphics being made will be correct to the nearest dot.

    I will keep people updated.

    Re: r5 gtt standard decals

    Right short of it all my guy can do these graphics but the cost is way to high

    The main reason's for this is:


    • These are not your normal car graphics, they are what the trade call "Screen Print's"
    • Each & every single DOT is invidual, no 2 are the same....
    • They can not be scanned/copied easily
    • This is why the aftermarket graphics are one solid colour


    Put it this way to replicate them down to each dot will be 2 weeks of graphics design...

    So my car can do solid colour graphics but tbh there not much less than what i can get them from Renault....

    So sorry guys i cant help, although i can order them for £120+vat from renault if you wish me to do so.

    On a seperate note i have spoken to 3M in the UK, they no longer make them for Renualt atm, so 3M can not sell the design's or anything to members of the public. Renault own the copyright & pattern deisgn for these graphics & if they were to be replicated they would have to be atleast 10% different for legal reasons.

    Re: r5 gtt standard decals

    I have some details about the side decals. I found a company who can produce graphics, not exactly the same but i'll try and explain what they can offer:

    The Grey band: this will be cut grey vinyl (or what ever colour is needed)
    The GT Turbo wording: Cut red vinyl (or what ever colour is needed) stuck on top, in the correct place obviously
    The Fade: digitally printed solid faded block of red (or what ever colour is needed) please see attached pic of how it might look

    For a one off print and fitting costs they have quoted me £60 so a group buy and no fitting they reckon about £40 A SET as a max!

    Whats peoples thoughts?

    Re: r5 gtt standard decals

    i recently bought a genuine set AGAIN for my gtt, the only way these will ever grace my car again is if all the bodykit came back off the car so they can be stuck on properly, so for now these will just live in the wrapper

    thats good stuff there mr hebdon, i would happily settle for a set of those ones you have found
