I am still awaiting some parts from Plane Plastics. | | | | Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 1,341 Member/1000+posts | Member/1000+posts Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 1,341 | No.No pics yet.

I sent a SASE out to you on Friday. If you still have some stickers, please send me one (or two).
If you are out of stickers, just dispose of the envelope.
Thanks, Phil

Just sanded and painted my gust lock bright red and added your fine sticker. Looks THOUSANDS of times better than my beat up old junker! Thanks again, what a great club!! [ Linked Image]

I left mine (the original) a little larger. I used one end of a three hole punch to cut out holes so that the two rivet heads would protrude thru them so that I could apply the decal flat to the enrire surface of the metal plate.
Then I applied a coat of clear polyurethane to the whole thing to try to keep it from getting dirty or greasy. | | | | Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 3,640 Likes: 49 Member/2500+posts | Member/2500+posts Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 3,640 Likes: 49 | I just trimmed it quickly to fit and burnished it down around the rivet heads. It snugged down fine, its just hard to tel in that pic. I'm thinking the same thing with polyurethane idea or some from of clearcoat.
I probably could have done a better job of matching the sticker to the shape, but i'm very satisfied with it. I may even get some Blue reflective tape for the center Chevron as that's what the original had before I clearcoat it.
