Wood grain decal review

I ordered a set of the 67-68 wood grain decals from Classic truck parts and the first one showed up in a damaged box creased with some small parts missing , I called customer service and they quickly had a replacement on the way . the first one looked flimsy and was already wrinkled and looked like the decal it's self was shrunk from the backing . a few short days later the replacement showed up and was a REPOPS brand part , all around it looks like a much better part it's made on a thicker decal and the lines are much better . now I'll have to call and order the REPOPS brand panel for the glove box so they match better .

Re: Wood grain decal review

So the yellow package is the Repops, right? And you are sying the counterpart one isn't as high quality?

Re: Wood grain decal review

Yeah, it should be more than just a mylar sticker, which I've seen. The pebble finish shouldn't show through. The thicker the better, so good to know about these.

Re: Wood grain decal review

Just make sure they fit the gauge holes, sometimes they don't quite fit the gauge holes right because of shrinking and stretching.
