Default Formula logo

Hi, I have an '88 f311 and I want to replace the factory F311 SR1 stickers that are on the side near the rear of the windshield with some in a different color than the black and chrome ones. Does anyone know if and where I can get an eps or ai file of those or the bird? If this has been posted before, I appologize. I tried to look but didn't see anything.

Thanks
Adam

I saved the chrome birds when I painted my boat. I just scanned them in and can conver from jpeg to Photoshop or Illustrator for you. They didn't scan very well because there is a lot of "tapering" on all the edges and the chrome is pitted on the one side and the adhesive is partially on the other side.

I'll be glad to email you the files if it will help---let me know. My email is in my profile.

Poorsche -

Thanks, I had the same results with my birds. Sitting by my scanner right now. You can send me the files if you want, maybe better than mine. I am really wanting to replace the F-311 SR1 stickers also. Do you know what font those may be in? I will post a pic later today.

If you can, take a photo of them close up as you can with a digital cam then download to a computer file. Then you could send as an attachment with an email to any graphic's shop. Then they upload into their computer and can copy it exactly. Works great. Russ

You can still get the birds from your Formula dealer, but not the silver / black stickers. As Russ said, graphics shops are always an option. I want to do mine over too so please post what you come up with.

If the stickers are still on the boat, then take a "rubbing". Mask over them with masking tape and use a pencil/crayon or something to make an outline, then put it on paper and you have created a negative to take to a sign shop. The dimensions will be perfect.

I think I still have a set of stickers for a 311 at home if anyone is interested. I will try to find out what I paid for them when I bought them several years ago.
