Acura Front Bumper decals

dont really feel upto painting the letter on the front bumper so i ordered some black decals off ebay in the middle of january. I just got refunded for the purchase as the seller said hes not making them any more. There arnt any other sellers on ebay selling the decals so anyone know of another person/site selling the acura letters for the front bumper?

Thanks

I know I have seen some domed decals threads before. I searched for this not too long ago but came up short. Try searching, maybe you have better luck

I bought a set (not the domed decals though) from magicparachute on eBay. Guy sucks. Took forever to ship and didn't reply to my emails when I asked him what was going on. They did finally arrive though.

thats the exact person i bought from to on January 11th. They were marked shipped on the 12th. I never recieved anything and sent a few emails with no responce. Had an e-mail from paypal this morning saying he refunded my purchase and added he wasnt making them any more.

I paid $25 for mine-a long time ago. If you want them bad enough-there you go. They're hard to find.

If anyone has specs/information on the exact size, I have a decal guy who makes SUPER cheap vinyl decals.

(I had two acurazine.com decals made for $3.50, 1 inch by 12 inches long)


He will make anything as long as you give him a picture or font and a size. I'm sure he'd be willing to go in on a groupbuy/sell here on the forum.

I doubt that will fly with the mods on this forum. You can only get that decal by donating money.

Donated 20$ and still no decal 2 months later. Did anyone get theirs?

Yeah, I didn't meant he Azine decals, but the bumper decals...they can be made if someone can provide measurements or something. The guy I've worked with before is very cheap; I was using the azine decals as an example of what he charged me

click on the link and look in the upper right corner. $30.88 Then if you want CF style or something else it will cost you +$9.75. And shipping is $17.20 with insurance or $15.00 without.

Jesstzn, did you just measure all that stuff out or is there a template you cut the vinyl by?

I put light weight brown wrapping paper over the letters and used the side of a pencil to rub over it and this makes an outline of the letters. I then cut them out of the brown wrapping paper and transfered them to the back of the vinyl and cut them out.

I'm speaking with a company about the domed decals. I've already gotten the OK from ggesq to start a GB thread. Talked to the guy on the phone today about pricing. Says they should go somewhere between 15 and 30 bux (remember, these are domed, not vinyl). This is just ballparking but I told him up front that anything higher would pretty much kill the whole deal. All he needs from me is a front view of the bumper. Jesstzn, if it's cool, I'd like to use your pic above. The black lettering is a good contrast against the white paint. Plus, it shows the cuts in the "A" and how the lettering is cut.

Feel free Also keep in mind if shipping is high it kills things also.

Ordered these a couple months ago. Cost me $7 and change to have them shipped, not bad but wasn't what I expected. Cheap, flimsy stickers and they didn't fit at all. I got pissed and junked them . Just a heads up.
