Correct, dark vehicles were grey, light colored vehicles were black, silver vehicles were also grey. Only two colors that came from the factory for the billboard decals.

I've never produced the smaller sets for the early models, but have done a bunch of other versions, including the Celica XX decals and the black banner style (still unconfirmed if any of these were oem).

For installation, its much easier to just pull the lock out of the hatch and install over the hole exactly where it should be, rather than trying to cut around the lock. You can then just slide the lock back in and have the decal tucked under the rubber/plastic gasket of the lock. Takes an extra 5 minutes to pull lock and reinstall it and looks much more professional.

Import reproduction, digital printed over met. gold:

6MGTE variant, definitely not oem:

Above is based of this vehicle from the late 80's:

And no, I don't have any contact with the owner of the red car, that was a photo from waaaaay back when. Don't even know the owner's name any more.

This is from a european car iirc:

Note that it is a dark grey and both the 2.8l and supra has a pattern in the lettering:

Perhaps one of our European members who has the oem decals can get some better photos and measurements of this style decals. I believe there's also a few online companies who already sell these, whether they're identical to oem, I do not know.

could very well be that too! I'm certainly no expert on all the different decals, although I haven't seen a listing for a gold color in the Toyota parts catalogs. Would love to see one of them in gold!

What an absolutely gorgeous car! I recall seeing the GTS logo in one of the parts catalogues somewhere, but I don't recall the gold color as an option, although that is definitely gold on the back! Would love to have some close-up photos and measurements of that set on Patrick's car!!!

So I just had to look! Here's the European MA61 decal list (MA61L-BLMQFW, all three models, L, R and V):

Here's the Japan listing (MA61-BLMQF):

Similar to the one I have on my car now, but interesting to note that they also had a "turbo" decal on the rear AND SIDES!

As for the rest of the North America versions, they all list the standard billboard style SUPRA decal that most of us have. These are the models that got that:

Note, all the images here are from the '82 model year. For '83, they added a "beige" color to the billboard decal, part number is 75996-14060-05 (-05 is beige, -01 is black, -03 is grey). Still haven't found the GTS decal yet, I suspect it is on a different model and somehow ended up being installed on the MA61 vehicles, maybe mistakenly, maybe due to shortage of the correct part, I dunno. I'll keep looking around for the part number though.

Well, not quite. Now I'm on a mission to find more info on that "GTS" decal and where it came from! I know I've seen it before, but I cannot find it anywhere!!!

 

[Flyin' Hawaiian]

Well, I stand corrected!!! Guess they got black. Makes sense, I don't think the light grey would really stand out well on silver. Definitely looks like an oem decal on the back of that car.

Get with Raptor Racing, they might have some of the XX decals in stock. If not, ask them if they can get one on order for you.

That's a MKIV Supra logo.

You mean like this one?

Some day I'll get the car re-sprayed, bumper looks horrible in that photo.
