Do you guys think Phoenix Graphics decals are pretty close to orignal for the GSX? Also, where to buy emblems? Today, it hit me. I'm just going to start ordering parts out the wazoo for the buick, having them sent to the car lot so Dad takes me serious. Seems like a good plan to me! Plus I've got the biz tax id. har har! :Brow:
If you are going to paint a car w/GSX strips, do it right, lay them out with 3M Fine Line tape and paint them on. Decals won't last and cheapens the car.
i still need a stencil and emblems. trust me, i've helped lay plenty of tape on cars to paint on stripes :TU: when i was about 16/17 i chased a man down over a z28 to get the stripe pattern off a 25th anniversary! my dad told me if i wanted them on my car to find somebody that had one..so i did..i chased him til he pulled over. LOL talking bout a scared look on somebody's face!!! few weeks later i had some stripes on my car. :laugh:
if you get the TA Performance catalogue, they've got quite a selection of decals, i'm not sure if they have the exterior striping. http://www.taperformance.com/products.htm [queues up INXS]
emblems ,decales I spent many an hour on Ebay for NOS Emblems still in the GM box. I had bought some aftermarket ones but were unhappy with the low grade {week} potmetal they were made of. It took about a 1,1/2 TO 2 years to find all NOS. The fender emblems you should find right away {GS},See them go for $50.00 to $60.00 a set avarage.If you hane a stage one their on there all the time also. Not sure on cost ,not for my ride The{ Buick MotoR Division } Emblems about the same cost. These emblems are the cheep ones if you get luckey you can find the others at a cheep price . After a year A grill emblem showed up and went for $115.00 worth it ,even though if Ide buy an aftermarket one it would be the grill , had one of them too and it was pretty solid. Now deck lid , top {GS} NOS emblems are said to go for $200.00 and also the {BY BUICK} havent seen these on e bay buy once after i found mine through a company called {CARS} INC. which they had the {GS} NOS FOR $60.00 last one. Got the NOS {BY BUICK} FOR $30.00 off a guy{luckey}. So its your choice Ebay and wait or go aftermarket. Freakazoid
