Having lost all but half of one of the decals on my Trophy's Speedline wheels, I would very much like to replace them! Obviously the OEM ones were more of a transfer than a sticker, but I think a decal would be the way to go. Does anyone have a decent quality picture of a Trophy wheel with the original transfer on it? Preferably one close-up and one of the whole wheel. Also, has anyone stuck the kind of thing I'm after on, and where did you get it? Thanks!

All 4 of my wheels still have the original transfer on. Hope this pic helps you. As you can see the 'r' has all but gone and there's a small piece missing from the 'C'.

Perfect! Thanks once again, guys. I'll contact that Ady182 bloke. Those little things really finish off the wheels! :D

I'm a bit geeky about these things too.
Can anyone confirm that there is only one decal per wheel (as opposed to two opposite each other on the rim edge)?
I think Speedline's website shows two per wheel(?)

Thanks.

Good question, I suppose they are silver though they could be see through white.

I'm really anal about things like this too, so cheers for the pictures. Really helps the OCD! I asked Ady182 on CS which colour and he said a light grey looks the most like the originals, so that's what I have coming. I'll post pics once they're on!

My stickers turned up in the post this morning, so I duly fitted them as soon as I got home! Really pleased with them too - they look absolutely excellent and just like new! Hopefully they'll last better too. I took some pictures of the process I used to fit them to help anyone else replacing them. I wanted to get their positioning just so, and so should you! :lol:

My one remaining half a transfer! I used this to line up my new stickers, along with the photographs in this thread. I then T-Cutted this last remaining piece off.

I placed the decal and backing onto the wheel in the correct place and drew lines to line it up. I noticed that the edge of the spoke runs through the small space between the letters 'l' and 'i' in 'Speedline, and so drew a line down this. I then drew lines around the edge of where the rim goes to orientate them correctly. The reason for this is that when you peel the backing away you can't see the decal in the same way you can in the pictures and without the lines it'd be really hard!
