Default Rear "porsche" sticker file

Does anyone have a file of the rear porsche sticker? Mine is badly damaged and needs replacing.
I have the facilities to print it. Just don't really want to draw it up. Even if it's like a flat image example, i can work with that.

Thanks.

I would think using the Porsche font with a little creativity would work

I think Van has a vinyl that looks very similar- I remember reading a thread where he was taking requests. I would PM him.

A 5 oz flat to Australia is $6 if it can be folded. The problem with most items is the cheaper "flat" service is only available on envelopes under 3/4" and uniform in thickness. It leaves a lot of items out of range but vinyl isn't one of them.
Van is going to be your best source either way (files or stickers).

Thanks butters and Travis, I'll speak to him and see what we can do!

The envelopes will get squashed as it's really only for letters!

you can cut the rear vinyl into several pieces that fit into an envelope, then it won't get creased - you will just need to be a little careful upon attaching it to the car. (I saw several 944s around Adelaide, so they certainly are operational there)

I got a file, printed it off in 2 pieces. only had 1300mm rolls of clear

Any tips of removing it? i did the hair dryer and i can remove the sticker. But the adhesive.. doesn't want to come off..
any solutions?
alcohols? ect?
Please don't specify american branded items as they're probably not available here.

Body shops use some good adhesive removers - I've used one in the past that I got from a paint and body shop supply company (but it was an american brand). It worked far better than the consumer ones like Goof-off.

I've read about goof-off, I'll go to a paint supplier and have a look.
I'll email you tomorrow, Thanks!

Neat but I personally don't like the font. I like to keep everything looking original, body wise.
