I like the look under the Spoiler, and would even pay for the decal, but I can't find it anywhere, and I've tried.

If I knew how to make them, I'd have a nice cottege industry perfect for retirement...lol...

(Maybe Andrew can save the day, and add this item to his Crossfire badges...)
Kodebuster, are you looking for the word "KARMANN" that came with the emblems from the Karmann factory?
About 8-9 inches long and about 1 inch tall?

No i believe it is 3-4 inches tall with a line under it connecting to the "K". it almost perfectly fits on the bulge under the wing

Larry, yes this is the Decal I was interested in, if not from Karmann directly, then something similiar in shape and size.

I like the decal look and location as it sits under the Spoiler.

Obviously, getting the whole package with the Karmann Badges would be great, but as I stated I think that party is over and the Karmann Company has gone silent...lol...

Larry, that would be great.

If you in fact find the Decal, I will gladly pay any shipping costs.

Just PM me if it happens to turn up...

Thanx...You da Man...

Not that I wouldn't take Badges if available...lol...

But the prices these Folks are asking for these Badges are out of line.

I guess folks consider them collectables, with Karmann on the ropes...

Oh it will turn up all right, it is just that I am at the Fire Station today and won't be able to look for where I put it until tomorrow. As for the postage, you'll get it the same way I got it from a gentleman from Ohio -- free.

The emblem/badges I put-on right away but I didn't use the lettering - so I thought I'd pass them on to someone that would use them. I do appreciate your gift.

Larry if you happen to have an extra Decal that you'll part with, I'll gladly take it.

Let me know and I'll PM you with a ship address...

Thanx

Well I said that I'd look for them yesterday but my wife wanted to go to the Chicago area (Bolingbrook) instead so guess what I did. You are first in line for the decal - I'll find it tomorrow I hope barring any last minute orders from above.

Stickers in hand, pm me your address and I will send one to you in Monday's mail. They are several years old so I don't know how good the adhesive might be, they have never been loosened from the backing though by me.
