None of the above. I put the car up for sale a few weeks ago, a few nibbles, no bites, thought I’d be taking it to Le Mans, offer put forward and I was happy. £231.89 on stickers gone.

However I am happy!
Hopefully the sticker residue polishes out!!

Couple of calls this morning to Topaz & Stickeredup4LeMans answered a question of mine - both say don't apply stickers over PPF.

So I will be going to LeMans naked, so to speak!

There's always the windows and the top of the windscreen/back screen if you can't put graphics on the main panels wink

What about over wax?

If the sunstrip arrives from Hong Kong in time that’s going on!

The issue with PPF is that the adhesion of the vinyl sticker to the PPF risks being stronger than that of the PPF to the car so removing the sticker risks lifting the film.

Assuming you mean wax over paint I’m sure there’s no problem. If you mean wax over PPF over paint I think you face the same issue.

We'll hopefully have an option next year for a sticker than can be applied over PPF smile we're just running a few tests

I am now officially all stickered up for Le Mans. Lots of photo's taken, these ones show the general idea.

Better that way - good clean and wax before applying helps with removal after.

Still a few more to go on yet. We made a mistake of applying some when it was too hot so they creased a bit, but nearly there ... [url]

My stickers arrive today.

Shame my car's 30 miles away, in bits. hehe

My mechanic has been told it has to be sorted by Thursday evening as i need to stick miles on it to get the new parts bedded in as it's got an 800 mile trip with a trailer to the camp site come Monday..

Nothing like cutting it fine.....

Anybody managed to obtain a 'WEC' sticker ?,perhaps licensing problems, can't find one anywhere
Dan at Stickered up made some for me last year.

Full WEC logo and the correct wording underneath in the correct colours. I asked for these to be the type to apply inside and they are on rear side windows of my GTR.

The image below is the reverse of the sticker, and of course the white backing paper peels off. Logo is cut all round so no "excess" border.

You really don’t.

One of our group did three years back to back, until a little one arrived, from New Zealand...
