I used a firm called Diginate.com online ( https://diginate.com/) it cost £17.60 for 3 stickers incl postage and I designed it online using their design tool ( I'm not experienced so it must have been easy!) I just used the standard red which looked very close, I did research the Ineos colours (https://www.ineos.com/globalassets/...oad-2020/30582_ineos_brand_guidelines_v14.pdf) off their brand site and it appeared to be RGB 213/43/30 whatever than means - but it looked very close to the standard red at Diginate!

If you go to Diginate the design was saved as Grenadier and the order number was D84827 the decal comes pre cut and it fits. You have my blessing to see if you can get a repeat of the design

Hope that helps

Stuart

Thanks for the website

Hardwoods in Portsmouth did this without even being asked!

My wife remarked that she liked the coloured A; I was indifferent , but hey , happy wife etc etc!
However we went orange , because it's different and matches a few other things, including the indicators.
Template from the back cover of an old tax file; decal looks red on my phone but not my pc - but is tangerine in real life.

Absolutely - especially on the lighter-colored trucks. When I see ones without the lambda colored it looks so blank.

Put on my yellow/orange lambdas. Got them from Clive like many others. Quality is great but I'd say the one for the bonnet/hood is a tad too short, like Michael Jackson's pants. The ones on the rear are perfect size. Good enough.

If you look at the top of the A on the bonnet, it is a tad too high so doesn‘t quite hit the bottom properly. All down to the position of the letter!

My hood A decided to disembark today whilst washing. I think I’m going to get it painted before ceramic coating the vehicle.

No it's not sitting too high. Here's another shot.

Overall, I think the decal needs to be thinner and the legs longer. That will fill out the area better and avoid raised areas along the edges.

100% agree. About me that is. I’d look much better thinner and taller.

Yeah Michael Jackson already has a wedgie. Legs need a little more inseam.

A few more in daylight

You know there are also the A’s on the mudflaps

. Might be better painting them perhaps ?

My first A on the hood blew off after a few days. I just have stuck it on wrong. If the one on there now goes, I’ll probably get it painted in before ceramic coating the whole thing.

Really dig the any-colour trend. Make it your own!

Oh god, someone's gonna fill their "A" with colour-shifting RGB LEDs next...

You need to really clean the place where the sticker goes, I used a spirit and it seems to have been successful.

for sure. and I use a hairdryer to warm all vinyl applications for stronger adhesion.

Has anyone removed the INEOS badge on the rear door yet?

Clive at https://diginate.com/ has adjusted the sizes for the bonnet/hood. Great service and the fit really well
