Hey, going a bit nuts with the stickers.

Have already re-ordered a second bunch from PH, and speedchills don't seem to be doing any. Anyone know where I can get some cool Le Mans stickers for the car. ACO doesn't do any and can't find anything anywhere else other than custom jobbies.

Had a look at Vipers (Neil) site but I just want basic stickers. Although, twin stripes might look cool over the Passat if they could come off after

Cheers.

My Mondeo rep-mobile stickers are planned and ready to apply closer to Le Mans.

Last year we had red flames on the doors, same again this yr but today we have bought white viper stripes to add to the effect! also text for the rear window planned.

It will only be on the car for 5 days, as its a company car, but seems worth it somehow!!

We will be easy to spot in MB or on the Mulsanne on Friday!

Likewise, mine is a company car, so must be clean by Tuesday! Like the idea of flames! Still would want some Le Mans stickers proper.

What have you got???? Official logos, team stickers, anything really

Getting my stickers ordered this weekend. As well as Pistonheads stickers, I have got...

Bootlid:
Speed limited to 155mph, please pass
La vitesse a limite a 250kph, passent svp

Rear flank N'S (taken from the back of a Norbert Dentresangle truck):
Vous aimeriez conduire un camion celui-ci? Appelez +44 xx xx xx xx xx

Rear O'S door:
Bentley, le meilleur boeuf Britannique

Which then leads into the drivers door:
L'attention, conducteur a la maladie folle de vache

Plus some large brightly coloured 'Le Mans 2005' with flags etc for bonnet and boot deck.

Viper stripes are the way forward - we're going to have a thoroughly stripey convoy of TVRs and more mundane machinery

I have the PH stickers for the side and rear of the beast, plus the classic:

"0-60 before we get there!" and "My other car's a DBR9!" on the rear

Nothing too flash here - the big PH one for my rear bumper, a couple of PH smiley type things for the doors and maybe a sunstrip if I can sort one.

Just dont know what car to put them on

Where do you get 'Viper' spripes from? Can you buy them on a roll for DIY application, or is it a mega-bucks professional application thing.

I have the big 'Pistonheads' stickers for the bottoms of the doors, but the twin white stripes would look great. Any idea on cost and supplier.

Thanks

You can get them from vehicle signwriters. They're not too expensive.

A couple of rolls of masking tape will produce the ultimate pikey le-mans renault-sport-esq stripes!

We're having the usual plastering of stickers!

Pistonheads, our group stickers(Kuntari Clan), and I'm trying to get hold of a huge Union Jack sticker for the roof of the Tuscan!

Like the idea of those Le Mans strips though!

Thats it! Names in windows (all four of us!), Viper stripes over the roof, Irish flags to beat the band and I'm awaiting a reply on some flames down the side from local signwriters

Does anyone know where I might get racing company stickers - sponsership style? Gulf, Shell, Dunlop all that kind of stuff?

Cheers. Keep an eye out for the racing red Passat in BJ

Halfords?

My local car bits and bobs dealer thingy (Wheelspeed) sells them.
Find where the townies get their kit from and head there!

Cheers Nige,

Halfords? Really? Cool. By townies I assume you mean "Max Power" types? Will have to go searching for those shops. Halfords only new over here, never been in one yet.

Thanks, Would'nt have thought of that.
