This may have been covered, but is there any way to get one of each?

Sorry, I'd like to keep these to 2-pack orders.

Once people start ordering odd numbers it gets much harder to keep track of things.

DELAYED SHIPPING

Due to the 20"+ of snow Chicago was just hit with, I have not been able to get to a post office to get orders shipped out.

Please be patient and refrain from PM bombing me. Your orders will go out ASAP.

Very sorry for the delay.
Here's a bit of what we're dealing with:

My ///M5, now properly decorated.

Decorated, a transitive verb:
1 - to add honor to,
2 - to award a mark of honor to (a soldier decorated for valor).



I know; the tail lights aren't shadowlined.
That's one of the warts it came with.
That too will be corrected.

Exterior decal orders are in the single digits! Get 'em before they're gone!

Plenty of interior decals left to go around.

All EXTERIOR decals are sold out. For good!

That will be the last run. Thank you to all who purchased them.

Interior decals are still available.

What a funny thread. Leave it to me to find out about these just as the outside ones are gone and other people wanted the inside ones which are all that's left... =(

Tinted windows = no inside sticker.

As mentioned above, no internal stickers for tinted cars, so there is mine.

Another guy had a similar issue. I'm not sure why it would do this. I've had mine on for about 6 months, through a Chicago winter and lots of power washes with no issues. I even TRY to blast/scrub them off! The vendor rates them at a 2-4 year life span.

Sorry for the inconvenience. I'll try to shoot you some replacements. Check your PM's

Make sure you thoroughly clean your window with glass cleaner before applying, and apply with a bondo spreader or credit card to ensure it's fully stuck on there.

PM replied to.
Thanks...

I did the thorough cleaning before applying.
I do not power wash, it's done by hand with a cotton mitt.

I'll double clean and pressure stick this time around.
No issues with the one on the ///M5 yet, though it's not left out in the sun as the E12 has been for the past few months.

I've gotten a ton of comments and have referred numerous enthusiast to this thread for purchase.
I've even seen it being pointed out to a passenger in the car behind me via my rear view mirror.
This past Saturday one of the referrals told me that he couldn't use the interior ones, due to tinting, and was wondering if any more of the exterior models were going to be reproduced.

The message is timeless. :D

Ok, one or two I could understand, but this is too many.

...time to have a talk with the supplier. I'll keep you guys updated.

My apologies for those of you experiencing deteriorating decals. I was told these had a 2-4 year life span.

Yes I was the first to have this problem. I PM him pics of the resulting damage and he promptly sent 2 replacements without question. Mucci has shown exceptional service in this matter. The one I have now is in good shape thus far...

Original, or replacement?

I'm thinking about covering the one on the ///M5 with some sort of clear coat to prevent this, if it's not too late.

I'd like to give everybody who's had issues replacements, but issue #1 is ..I just don't have any left. Issue #2 is, if there's a problem with their quality, I rather have it addressed, and then send replacements.

I don't want to make any promises here though. I've messaged the vendor and we'll see what their response is.

There should be no problem with interior decals, since they're produced differently and are away from the elements.

Original, I think from the first batch or two. IDK. It's been on like a week, lol.
