4DSC Decals ARE BACK!

The first run I made of the original 4DSC decals was a tremendous success.
At the request of many members representing all generations of Maximas, I have made another short run.

While this particular decal is a 3rd gen factory exclusive, I wanted to make these available to all generation owners.

I have made a limited run of (100) 'inside mount' 4DSC Decals.

NEW addition: I also have done a run of (50) outside window mount versions. OUTSIDE MOUNT DECALS ARE NOW SOLD OUT:

For those of you who always wanted them, or those who had them but lost them due to peeling off over time and dying natural death (Chronic Decalitus)... now is the time to jump on them.

- They measure 4 x 1.5 inches.
- White typeface on clear backing.

Pricing is as follows:

- (1 decal) for $4 + $1 shipping = $5
- (2 decals) for $7 + $1 shipping = $8

Orders will be fulfilled on a first come first serve basis: If there is demand for more I will run another batch.
I will keep buyers appraised of remaining stock.

There is no need to put your name down in this thread. Just go ahead and make payment (PayPal only) to account: "hadman [at] rogers.com".

--> link PayPal


**PLEASE INDICATE ON YOUR PAYPAL PAYMENT IF YOU WANT INSIDE OR OUTSIDE MOUNT DECALS**

Below is an example of the decal (and proof of my inventory for wary buyers).
Of course, I have been here on the org for 7 years - that should put any fears to rest.

Regards,
Hadman

I'm tinted 20% all around. It's as visible as I need it to be, but for obvious reasons - not factory visible. It really comes down to how dark or light your tints are. I like it as much showing 'stealth-like' through my dark tint as I would if I had a very light, or no tint.

Don't mean to sound like a pr*ck lol, but I'd prefer to offer my own images. Thanks for trying to help Joseph. You are an enthusiast and a scholar. I do appreciate it.

This is a closer representation of the decal on a 5th gen. This is a photoshop (of the actual decal). I didn't have a 5th gen handy to snap a pic of. I'm quite certain an original will look better.
5th and 4th gen owners: please take a photo for me if you can and post it here once you receive them.

That would be great.

Hey, I'd also appreciate if you guys could add a positive comment on my iTrader file (click on link under avatar). I'd like people to know for any future transactions that I am a trusted and reliable source on this forum.

Looking forward to your pics - cheers!

I just wanted to add this link, which explains how to effectively install a decal. It's trickier than one may think getting the placement just the way you want it, and making sure you don't have air trapped behind it.
There are actually handy tips for getting it done right.
One link I found on YouTube can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wt0Hv...eature=related.

While this video was posted for a outside window mount, and the specific product they are covering comes with an additional application spray, the same rules apply for our decals. The guy narrating the video has a great voice too. Worth a watch.

EDIT: One thing I might mention, if it's not obvious, they use an exacto knife to cut away the backing paper. As this is an interior mount and many of us have tint... don't use an exacto knife! lol
Scissors are your friend.

Decals arrived today! They look great although I haven't put them on the Max yet but I know they will look great! Thank you for recreating the 4DSC stickers and being an honest seller. I have always wanted one and had started making a reproduction graphic of my own. Yours turned out great and I'm thankful to have a set.

Thanks again!

Well I couldn't hope for a better endorsement than that - thank you.
There had been much talk about it over the years, but nobody acted on it. I just wanted to make a contribution.
I've had nothing but positive response and that makes me happy. A lot of people were especially pleased by the price I offered them for. So it's a win situation for everybody. They have been selling at a good pace - 84 of the 100 decals are paid for and delivered.

I was able to snap a shot of the decal mounted on a 5th gen today at our local meet. This member's car is tinted at 20% and the stealth appearance looks great in my opinion - like it was delivered that way from the factory. This is even more evident looking at it against the outside mounted decal he has.
(that is not me in the photo - just another decal admirer lol)



There are 16 decals remaining!!

Thanks! I assume you are mailing them through USPS?

Question: I assume that if I mount them on my car and then add tint afterwards then they will show up bright. Is that right or will I have problem with the tint if I do that?

Yes, they are shipped USPS.

And yes, they will show up bright (white) if they are mounted before your tint is applied.
A professional tint installer shouldn't have any issues laying the tint over the decal.

Nice work! I'd almost be interested but.... The 3rd gen is classic but the 80s "digital computer age" font is a little dated.

I know this it the 1st-3rd gen classifieds...but I would like to see a replica made of the 7th gen 4DSC sticker.
