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 |
Re: Formula logo
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 |

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. adam at admservices . com Thanks, Adam |
Re: Formula logo
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

Re: Formula logo
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.

Re: Formula logo
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.

Re: Formula logo
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.

Not bad for 19 years old. What you see at the very top is water droplets. The shine is still so good, you can see my belly in the reflection on the right.

Re: Formula logo
shouldn't that be in the "it's spring/belly button thread" :D

Plus, if you act now, I'll throw in a cheap Rolex Presidential! :D
Looks like wantsa311 had his finger in the button first. I think I have 311 SR-1 for both sides. Let me check at home and get back to you guys with exactly what I have. Thanks, Chris |

Thanks every one for the suggestions.!
The stickers are not on the boat any more. I did a scan of the panel in front of the passenger seat and then did a trace of it. this is what I came up with. I have a vinyl cutter and can cut these just about any size or color. I was just being lazy :) hoping someone had the files. I am working on cleaning up a scan of the bird. I am not a professional sign guy, but if anyone wants a "custom" set of these PM or email me and I'll see if I can get 'em in the mail [email protected] Thanks evryone Adam |
Re: Formula logo
I've got stickers to complete 311 and SR-1 for both sides. They were discontinued when I bought them years ago ... these are the last and the F-311 is actually from (4) F-31 stickers. You will need to cut the second "1" from the extra set. I'm sure I paid more, but $25 will take them. Wantsa311 has first dibs, Thirdbird is second. Post or PM your address if you want them. I can drop them in the mail as soon as I have a taker.

In any event, I thought it was a done deal, Wantsa311 was going to buy them. If the stickers are for an F-311 SR-1, I'll take 'em. $25.00 is on its way as soon as you say so. |

Why would I want or need to cut the "1" from any of the stickers to make it F-311?? What does the sticker say,,,,,, "F-3111"????? Don't get me wrong here buddy, no slam intended toward you. I just don't get it. But then again, there's lots that I don't get!! :D |

Re: Formula logo
Yea, four (two pair) F-31 cruiser stickers (same font/appearance as the SR's), means to get two F-311's you have to cut and add a "1" from the second pair of F-31's.
That's the best I can do with it. :D |

Re: Formula logo
Third,
The way I figure it you could have the only F-311311 in the world. Or possibly a FF-311311. The possibilities are endless. Ya follow that or do you need Rip to translate? If ya don't get at those motors soon it ain't gonna matter much anyhow. Why do I feel when I see you in May at the pond that you'll be at the helm of the SS Budweiser pontoon boat? :drink: :drink: :drink: :drink: |
