Title: ET Kuwahara Decals E-Bay............WARNING
Post by: rapidrabbit on March 23, 2010, 07:18 PM: Hi folks,

Just want to post up a warning to anyone considering buying the ET Kuwi decals that are doing the rounds on fleabay at the moment..............................they are shite!

I paid £20 for a set from the guy who is in Malaysia. At first glance they look great....................until I started to apply them to my freshly restored frame and forks.........................the white just fades to a grey colour..............very dissapointed to say the least. :rant: Very poor colours.................. :tickedoff:

Possibility of getting a refund on these? Not holding my breath! :shocked: What would you guys do?

Anyone bought a set of ET repro's from Del? If so, what are they like?

Cheers :daumenhoch:

These came from OZBMX, bought on Ebay for £25, they still go slightly grey if you look at the 'RA' on the white downtube compared to the 'KUWAHA' which is on the red but i'm happy enough:

- go to Del fella :daumenhoch:
