For those of you that wanted to keep your window sticker and Ford decided to throw it away anyway. I stumbled across http://www.fordshowparts.com/ yesterday where you can order an official re print if you give them your VIN.

I have my original window sticker framed on my wall. A really cool piece of memorabilia IMO.

Anyway, thought I would share in case it's of any use to anyone. They also do certificates, custom scuff plates etc.
Very cool, but its $50 to ship $25 of paper, which you can actually print out for free from ResearchManiacs....

They sure know how to charge!

Can I not just download the PDF from research maniacs and print it myself :shrug:
Yes, but then it's not the original ;)

Same goes for my film movie poster collection...reprints are cheap as chips, but they ain't the real deal! :headbonk:

Whilst we're all gendering off topic.

Caliper paint.

Foliatech - 300c//570f
E-tech - 250c//480F
(that's their heat protection)

I'm going to laquer over these after the caliper decal goes on; I assume 250C will be more than enough heat resistance for the calipers?

(Filotech I have to mix and is essentially '1 use' E-tech I can use to touch up, but less heat resistant)

Mike at Modurstang told me to get the
Foliatech - 300c//570f

more info than the one from research manics
but its a total rip-off on the postage, unless you buy a few bits than the postage stays the same. And its a very quick service.
3 days from the place to your door

Bit late, I used foliatech, took forever to dry, and it didn't dry properly, it's holding up super fking well at the minute, still look brand new. The paint needs ot be mixed 75/25, rather than 50/50 like the guidance says, they sent me a free set when I complained, so I have backup for if the paint goes dodgey.

The paint goes matte if not mixed right, I put laquer car paint coating over it, back to gloss black, have some lovely red caliper stickers on them too (Coated over in laquer to stop them peeling). :)

I sent the PDF off to Vistaprint and it's now a small vinyl banner on the wall. The white space is good for writing reminders in!

I am sure this has been asked and explained but I cannot find the post.
How do you upload a video to this site?
I use photobucket but it only puts a link here for you to follow to photobucket. Want the video to be displayed here like the "How to Videos"

Upload to YouTube and then copy and paste the web page link. Don't share the video as that doesn't embed it to the page.
