Rx3sp Decals, Repu Too!!

I need to find a source for the full set of sp decals.... I need them for an Orange SP (yellow highlights stripe) and also for the repu sides and "rotary power" logo. I'm also testing (demo)a Gerber graphic advantage vinyl plotter machine... So if anybody has the vector files I would be also interested???! It seems to me somebody has done this before....

Thanks

cga

decals rx-3sp

Whats up man? My names Erik and I just bought a 77' sp yesterday and the dude that sold it to me said that on parts trader .com and go to sticker kits they have them.. he said theyre like 300 bucks but thet they replicate ALL stickers and if you send them your vin. they send you it all up to the emissions labels and everything. I havent looked yet cuz my comp. sucks but check it out.. also I wanted to know how rare are the sp's in actuality? thanks -erik

I wonder on all these GRAFIX shops I see opening up every where. I f I were to get a big piece of masking paper and trace the whole emblem on the righht side and then shop around to see what people caould do? But thne the problem is that i dont have the decal on left( replaced door) nor on hood ( replaced as well)....? So Im definately in the same boat as you guys. I also heard that mazdatrix has something, if not maybe provide good quality images???Or if it does come to that all of us who Do have quallity decals left on one or another side of the car can do what i said about the masking paper and do a quality outline and if we get enough people a printing shop or grafix place could probaly work with us?

i think you would have a problem with getting enough interest. i bet you would find 4 people to buy with you. but let em knwo what you find, i would think if you found a good quality picture you could bring it to them and get somethng similar made. but i think finding that vector file is the way to go.

I have not gotten it yet but it is the closest thing to the factory look and if i repaint my
car its the only way i can think of putting back on for 20 dollars.
I think it will look good with the rally stripe on the bottom of the doors.
if it doesnt look good it can always be removed with very little effort.

My Rx3 SP is back at the stripe shop and should be done in 2-3 days(he promised) The stripes are being applied tomorrow.... both my (SP's are in the shop...)
taking lots of pic's and will post as soon as possible. These entire stripe kit is alot more complex then anyone would guess... I sent out quote requests to 8-9 shops to do the sp stripes and most wouldn't even think of it....half wouldn't quote me at all, they just said sorry....... I'm gonna sell SP Stripe kits on Ebay...$800-1200 depending on how much this ends up costing.
The stripes are perfect, so we'll see how they look on the car....he's got 45hrs in on this project so far...... the stripes include everything for the SP.... any color of course. The front spoiler on my cars are both aftermarket, so the front stripe is made for that spoiler... I don't have the front original spoiler so it didn't make any sense to duplicate something I can't use... The sides stripes, Hood Stripes and rear spoiler stripes are perfect reproductions

man oh man..... hard to sleep now.... this is excruciating.... I have been waiting for months to get to this point....
