ZeroDelta Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 HI, As you will see from my last post my Defender is about to go in for some rust correction work very soon. Thinking further down the line I will need to respray the doors and bulkhead. With this in mind I will need to replace the County decals on the side. Does anyone know where I can get my hands on some. I have googled and eBayed but could only find things like one life live it etc. These are they type of decals I am after (although the pics are not of my wagon): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi_110 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I think there's usually a guy at Billing Show called "Ken the sticker man" or something similar. He sells non-genuine decals from an unmarked tent and I picked up a bunch of various defender decals including the big diagonal door ones to bring back to NZ, that was back in 2009. I've heard that LandRover have tried to close him down over copywrite infringements or some such so I don't know if he's still around. I've since seen a set of Defender decals made locally here in NZ and I beleive any digital printer can do them on that flash vinyl stuff these days.

western Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 see page 904 gives the clours of the bodytape items too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroDelta Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 I take it that Land Rover stock these as genuine parts too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 wouldn't bet on it, but there maybe some old unsold stock remaining, nearly all the independent LR parts suppliers use the LR part numbers to refernce their stock with, be it original LR or from other manufacturers.

ZeroDelta Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 Firstly thanks for the help with the part number as this lead me to the proper terminology as the the decals are called side tapes. This has lead me to Craddocks and Simmonites who both stock variations. That said I did find a full set on eBay at £500!!! Cheers for all the good advice Landy Novice and Western.

wack61 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Sticker prices are crazy, years ago I had a Kawasaki 500cc , I respray it and went to the main dealer to get the decals replaced He got a pad and started writing numbers down After a few minutes I asked if they were part numbers No they're prices Ok how much are you up to so far £310 + vat Right forget it, the bike is only worth £500 I was expecting them to be £50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
