Need pics of paint decals

Post by vandor »

As many of you know we have reproduced a bunch of decals for the Spiders. We started to reproduce the paint color decals that are on the firewall or on the trunk lid of Spiders. We have a few, but of course it's hard to find cars locally with all the different color.
We'd like to ask Spider owners to send us pictures of the paint decals on their cars, and if we are able to reproduce them then we will send them a free decal. The ones we already have are:
Ardesia Metall. 892/F
Nero (black) FI601
Marrone Metallizato (metallic brown) 856/F

Thanks,
Csaba

Can you post an example of what you're looking for? I have a metal plate on my firewall that lists the VIN, the motor and the paint color, but nothino other decal there or in the trunk (it's a Green 74). I suspect that's not what you are looking for (but will be happy to send it if you are) - so I may be a customer if I'm missing mine!

Here's mine, obviously it's been doctored but it works for me. The label is in good shape and you can photoshop the codes for the genuine Fiat numbers.

Given I'm changing color - can I have one in the new color please? :)

The orange air cleaner labels should also be on the to-do list. Do you get alot of demand for those? I never understood why the blue ones were produced.
I also like the Ansa exhaust red stripes on the tail-pipe tips but i guess i'm hijacking this thread with this. :mrgreen:

We need a readable label to copy first. Usually a pic is not enough. We may be able to get by with just a pic for the paint decals, as we already have a few under our belts, however even that is not a guarantee. It is always best to actually have the decal.

How about some red electrical tape :-)

I can send the whole thing if you like Csaba

I may be able to get the paint code decal off the trunk lid in one piece if you like.

Thanks for sparing that a/c lid Alan :wink:

<"How about some red electrical tape">

That obviously won't work, the material has to be heat resistant. You can produce it as a kit with your Mamitte decals.

I can peel mine off too and it will be very intact. However, you will not be able to separate it from its protective clear shield.

I have had that on the wall for years... :lol:
No wonder my garage is so crowded.
I have thought about trying to reuse it somehow but if Csaba and Ramzi are going to get some made then I'm in!

Thanks to everyone that has emailed us.

Hi Alan, it'd be great if you could send either the cover, or the decal.

Guys, at this point we have our hands full with the stock decals, I don't think we want to get into 'modified' ones.

The electrical tape comment was a joke...
