VIN DECALS?

[hailwood1965]

Morning my people:

I'm not sure I am going to be able to adequately mask around the VIN decal on my RZ500 frame (repaint) and have it look ok. Wasn't there a place that sold replacement VIN and "made in Canada" Canada decals to make this look more pro?

Has anyone ever used a heat gun to pull the VIN decal off the frame and successfully reattached it??

Advice and suggestions welcome.
Hail

Just buy a new one. $20 and it’s an exact replica, colour and look.

I got the RZ500 VIN decal and Transport Canada decal. One set in black and one set in white as I'm still undecided on frame colour.

I exchanged some email this morning with sales@replacementdecals.com and they stated that they are no longer making the VIN decals because people complained that they were charging too much. Here is most of the message:

Hello. Sorry but we have not been making them for a while now. These custom items were the least profitable of what we sell due to the time needed to set them up custom and make them along with the increase in cost of the thick, tamper resistant reflective 3M material used to make them. It is hard to charge $40-$50 for such a small decal because most people just look at the size but it actually takes just about the same set up and print time and material to make one as to make a dozen or even more at this size. This particular item is ordered custom, one at a time and randomly. That makes for a waste of time and materials every time on these orders when compared to other orders. It came to a point where we had to stop selling them or raise the price to $40-$50. After a couple complaints on the price we decided to stop selling them. That is probably not what you wanted to hear and we are sorry about that.

Any other ideas, anyone?

Well that’s not great news. I’ve bought 8-10 decals from them and they were perfect every time.

You can get them here.
