twinshock giles Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Folllowing on from the previous discussion, I thought I should sort some out for my fibreglass tank as the alloy tank ones are a different shape, I could vaguely make out the shape of some original decals on this tank so to top half should be about right. However going through my Spanish Trials Bikes Book and The Ossa Collectors Guide book there are no really good photos of the tank for the lower half. So based on what I could see do these look right? They're going to be a right bugger to fit (nicely) due to the shape of the tank, i managed to crease these doing it quickly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffsgasgas Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Heat gun heat gun heat gun. That will take out any creases. (spoken from a true decal addict) --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinshock giles Posted December 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I was in a bit of a hurry and I knew they would be coming off again anyway as the tank needs painting, I just wanted to make sure I got the pattern correct. As Woody said previously they are a very different shape to the alloy tank ones. But like you say a bit of warmth and they would have conformed much better.
