No, Toyota don't make them anymore.
They come in at least two colour options lumix, but that has come out awesome.

Hrmm pretty sure my dad has an OEM one chillin at his place as a spare. One of my old girl friends dad worked for Toyota and had a drawer full of Toyota decals from which I was given the mr2 related ones and passed onto dad as I didnt have mine at the time.

Thanks guys. I had only seen two bathurst stickers, mine and groper's, so it is interesting to learn that there was another colour option! I picked a grey that I thought was a good match. I'm stoked how it turned out, has improved the rear end 10 fold but now my tail lights and center panel look so dull in comparison! So that will be another little project for next week. Peter

Oh really, nice, I saw OEM one on eBay last year, it was around $80+ :s!

Pretty sure they had a white 'mount panarama' and a lighter grey for black cars - black 'mp' for lighter coloured cars and a darker gray.

Have you got the name and contact details for that print shop to make a new Bathurst sticker ?

The little air bubbles in the sticker I spoke about have disappeared. Happy happy.  Last week I made some changes to the stickers for Peter and Rick. Dark grey for Rick's silver sw20 and white mount panorama text for Peter's dark green sw20. I printed a couple extra in case anyone else wanted one, just PM me.  During the week I also bought some new detailing products to test. The goal was to detail it for the David Hack Classic on Sunday. Dodo Juice Lime Prime (Micro-abrasive) and two sample tubs of wax.  I was surprised how much harder the Lime Prime was to apply compared to the poorboys polish, probably due to the micro-abrasives, the oiliness and applying by hand. However, applying wax was simple and smelled amazing. My day went: Wash -> Claybar -> Polish -> Wax. 8+ hours later... my arms were spaghetti. Result  and photos from the David Hack Classic on Sunday.   More photos from the event are in the QLD forum for anyone interested.

My stickers just arrived. They look fantastic. I cant believe how exact they are. The colours are spot on, the pic from my phone doesn't do it justice. I cant wait to put it on. Thank you so much.

:D! I'm so glad you are happy with it! Also to remove the old sticker I used a hair dryer to soften it and gently worked it off with a plastic scraper while remaining cautious not to scratch the paintwork. Followed up with claybar, polish + wax before applying the new sticker. Boring update: New plastic clips arrived in the mail for me. I was missing a few that held my boot lining in place.   To be honest I'm not really sure what to do with the car next. The engine bay needs cleaning/tidy up so that could possibly be my next goal.
