It seems that there is a major attempt underway in MO to copy the artwork of M-Squad on many of collector's parts that was done and is being pirated out there - I've seen it. The accuracy of M-Squad's decals are excellent and have had many hours of time put into them to make sure that they are accurate and if a problem exists, they take care of it. I find it troubling when someone (and his "posse") makes attacks of this nature in the ether and has only had minimal contact with a vendor.

You have a choice in the matter of what you do with your restorations. Accuracy is important and it seems that Mr. D's attempts at trying to get away cheap has backfired on more than one occasion and was simply trying to save face in this particular incident.

Good luck with your campaign against M-Squad but those of us that know what the real deal is know what the story really is about.


It may SEEM to you that there is a major attempt underway in MO. to copy M-Squads artwork, BUT I STOOD there at the MO. guys computer as he did mine from scratch.
He did NOT use that M-squad decal, THIS I KNOW cause I was there.
He made mine first, before he did Jim's and I did NOT have and decals for him to copy.
Saying that it SEEMS that Mr. D's attemps at trying to get away cheap and has backfired, is a very ungentlemanly statement. All your statements in above post start with IT SEEMS. However, I KNOW!!!!! What I said is true.
I personally Know the problems Mr. D had, and all he wanted was to get a set so he could show his vehicle.
I know of another fellow in Ca. who had problem with M-squad. He is very happy with his MO. decals.
Buy where you want, but it looks like if someone doesn't go with several of you folks opinion, they get ripped.
I KNOW

Facts surface. You attacked, I rebutted, someone else attacked again, you are now crying foul about it. Ungentlemanly? Unlikely. You don't know me and quite frankly I seem to know more about you than you care to admit.

Very simply put, I'm responding to your comments and you are upset. Sorry that I upset you but I'm not worried about it. I know what the facts are.

I have been at this for a lot longer than you with far more difficult projects and I know the games that are out there.

I said NOTHING about the decals initally! Just responded on this issue when you ripped Mustang Retriver and Mr.D. by the way both very professiona ACTIVE L.E.O's and gentlemen. What the heck do you mean I attacked, you rebutted.
I have nothing to be ashamed of in my past. I am in the hobby for the fun and friendship.
I also don't give a rats behind about you not being worried about it. I didn't post too do that, just stating something I personally knew.
I never said a bad thing about Dave and his decals, and in fact I had talked to him about a set, but timing was way off.
Get the cob out of your rear and enjoy the hobby, go to the shows.
Maybe some day we can get together at a show and visit!
OH ya!! If you know so much about me, How many shows have I attended compared to you attendance?

You call this "ripping"? Wow, I didn't realize how delicate people's feelings are in the Mustang/Camaro world. I'm pointing out my stance, you are pointing out yours. I thought this was a friendly conversation. So for that I apologize if I've offended you. I don't agree with what you are saying so I'm making my point as well as are you.

LEO's? Really?... gentlemen, ok.

I have to say, I haven't seen you in California, NYC, NJ, PA and Chicago... so there it is. Your

No apoligy needed!!!!!! but thanks anyway!
Oh yeh, Ripon 6 times over the years. Cops and rodders in Sacremanto, Ca. twice, Reno twice. Wa. ID, Indianna 3 times, Detroit 2 times and on to Canada at that time,Il,Tx, AZ, Colo, KS, IA, Ar, and many,many shows in Mo. Traveled 2000 plus miles this past Sept-Oct to get to Co.&CA. Furthest east, would be (N.E) Detroit!!
I have 125-130 dash plaques from shows to prove my attendance.
With gas prices as they are, will probably will really slow me down as being retired kinda limits the miles I can afford to go.
I still say both Eric and Jim are gentlemen and as far as I know so are you!
If you feel like PMing me, feel free and we can keep this off the baord, bothering others with this trivial crap!!

Just as I was getting prepared to close this thread, you two resolve things. Well done!

I think a dialog on M-Squad is fair. Count me as a satisfied customer, but I've been in business long enough to know that you cannot please everyone. That's not a personal dig; just how things work. But I think anyone reading this thread now is better informed in making their decision on decal sets.

In terms of the actual debate in this thread, I think things could have been MUCH worse. I am active as an Administrator on a very large Mustang forum, and this thread was tame compared to what I normally see. But it seems like in this case everyone was reasonbly respectful in their comments. Thank you...

Just to clarify, for me (so we don 't get into another back and forth thing)
What did you mean by "LEO's? Really?... gentlemen,ok. It appears to me! you have question if Mustangretreiver and Mr. D are actually LEO's?
Sorry if I took this wrong.
Thanks!!

The internet and this hobby is a funny thing - things don't always seem what they are and you cannot see a persons' intent when typing.

Anything further P/M me per the Admin's request.
