An ebay question i'm struggling with
« on: April 25, 2010, 01:26:33 pm »
Got asked a question on ebay, vexxed me a little, the buyer bought some decals that read "GTI" - have a read:

hi bought a set of stickers in march ps they look great just ome prob they are all facing the same way put one on the trim under the glove box and one on the ali trim on the pass door but its the wrong way round for the drivers door do u do them for the other side ?? many thanks

...so i'm thinking that if i changed the letters round the way i think they want it would read ITG? or they would be a mirror image so wouldnt be right. I then thought maybe he's sticking them to his glass but he talks bodywork, so i asked for clarification and got this:

if the gti sticker is on the pass side door thr gis on the left as with the sticker on the trim below the glove box but on the drevers side trim the g on the gti is on the left not on the right like the other side ?? ps do u do a larger sticker ?? just had my side skirts paited black the same as the car and thought the sticker there would look great cherrs

GTI can only ever read GTI in that order no matter where you stick it... or am i just not getting it?

anyone help?  :fighting2:

Hopefully the nurse will give him his medication and he will forget about it.  :confused:

Ask him to take a picture of what he means?

Sounds like a complete nut. Or maybe you sent the wrong vinyls?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

nope, the correct vinyls were sent out, he's happy with them but its how he's trying to apply them or rather the location he's needing help with. I dont want to produce something he requires and send him it when it would be clearly incorrect...

i think its either his descriptive skills at fault or his lack of vision to see a potential error?

or its me for not understanding him  :laugh:

GTI can only ever read GTI  :laugh:

The only other possible way would be if he wanted it to read correct when seen in the rear view mirror then you would need ITG as you suggest ...

the only way it could read ITG is if he stuck it on the outside of the window and read it from the inside, but even then the G would be the wrong way around.  you have to post that pic up when he sends it so we can see

i think maybe he's been to too many jap shows where the decals are "reversed" on one side of the car compared to the other side

This is what happens when the government push Care in the Community too far.  As hedge said hopefully he will get his medication soon, or maybe they changed the dose. :grin:
