Title: Gutted!! Got my OOF Stickers! Can't Use em!!
Post by: richardirv on 07 April 2008, 14:44:12
I was well chuffed when my OOF stickers came through the door, I was slightly miffed after taking out the rear headrests and started working out were to apply! only to then realise that you weren't gonna see em through my tints!!! well you could see it but only just, it didn't look very good so I didn't bother! 1 ruined! I have another and was gonna put it on the front screen but then thought it wasn't gonna look right! boo hoo  
:( :(

Managed to put my OOF Tax Holder on without a hitch though  :)

Had the same problem with mine. After sticking it in the back window it's barely visible due to the tint. :'(

I'm annoyed because I really wanted it to be seen, I see loads of Omega Drivers but there are very few members in Leeds, it would be nice to spread the word abit, I don't ussually do stickers on my cars but the OOF stickers being plain and not too large I was happy to put them on!!

Is there a type of sticker that can be produced for the outside of the glass? that is durable?

Just the one type available at the moment and I don't think there's any plans for any other type just yet.

You could always get some OOF flyers to stick under the wiper of any parked Omega's you see around. :y

I'm sure most Omega owners would find it to their benefit to find an OOF flyer on their windscreen and sign up. ;)

The OOF sticker in my rear window is easily sen. The one in the front is half in & half out the front "sunstrip". the idea was to make it look like a rolling credit title from a telly show. You have to look to see it but it seemed like a good idea at the time & it's there now so it's staying!!!!!!!!!! :y

That bl00dy Mike Dundee has a lot to answer for!!  >:(;D ;D

It's not really that noticeable except in certain light. I think it must have been "dinked" by a stone although there's no chip in the paint.

Cheers Albatross, glad you like it. :y

It's not looking quite so good at the moment as I still haven't sorted out the smashed door mirror and it's in need of a damn good clean. :-[
