Appearance & Detailing - Who wants Polished SS Firehawk Nostril Hood Inserts

OK, DragonZ28 we are putting it to a poll:

Personally no, but I'm sure there are plenty of "yes" Firehawk owners to make it worth the time making the design program for the cutter.

yes yes and yes I have a firehawk hood and have other dragonz28 emblems and these need to be made would be willing to spend slightly more than 80 to make it worth his time. I want to complete the look.

I want SS Firehawk script overlays to replace the decals ;) !

PM DragonZ28.....he may have a set left, but not positive! They hold up very well! Look as good as the day I purchased them -- top quality!

Hey Mike!

I'll pay him right now.

Yes I do as well, why didn't you make an actual poll? (Individual options for Firehawk hoodscreens, Script, SS, i.e.) Also, I would want the Firehawk stuff, only if the extractor screens were done as well, I would be willing to send the set of screens I have for the templates...

I spoke to him a while ago, and I don't think it's gonna happen, because of he didn't wanna step on SLP's toe's over the hawk stuff

The scripted "Firehawk" insignia IS TECHNICALLY a joint GM, Pontiac, Firestone, SLP shared copyright, so yes, they halted production after a scare tactic from SLP. Luckily, I got (1) of (6), but the polished inserts are NOT a copied piece, so their shouldn't be any issue.

What happened is that several re-produced Firehawk decals/artifacts (several vendors-unauthorized), etc. began appearing on E-bay, but this happened last year. To date, there have been no repurcusions to the best of my knowledge, but they did say they would legally pursue any infringement rights. The purpose behind this, is to prevent people from altering f-bodies to represent them as Firehawks. Certainly understandable!

So now you know the rest of the story! You can purchase these items on Ebay under "muffinbuster", but you are correct in that they are no longer producing these scripted door/rear fascia decal replacements.

For restoration purposes, I still need to re-acquire another set of door/rear facia decals before they disappear. A distinct disadvantage, since you cannot re-apply the old decals, although I never intend on re-selling the Hawk in my lifetime.

^^^ Good idea on stashing some spare decals for future use. I'll probably restore my Firehawk someday and those graphics will come in handy after a re-paint.

I wonder how I can store a set of decals safely for the next 15-20 years...http://insaneindustry.com/images/smilies/scratch.gif

oh hell yeah i want all that all those please :devil:

I would also love to get my hands on some fixed headlights for my T/A. If anyone could ever make heads or tails out of all those threads bout them!

how much for them all ? the overlays, hood grills, and heat extractor grills? Very interested !

I don't want them, I need them.

And then I'd probably paint over them with a glossy black.

I have the Heat extractors chromed....look badass...similar to hood pins. A set of Nostrils may look good. I would need to see pics first. I don't like too much bling.

I forgot about the heat extractors!


Whoever makes the nostrils has to do the heat extractors as well. I don't half-ass anything. :)

Are there no holes for air to get through?

I am copying this thread

and what about Stainless Steel - Chrome Heat Extracter Vents?!?!?!

I believe those may pose a real challenge....curved and probably a real PITA to make!

Guess Dragon must be in hiding :jest:

yes, but imagine how amazing they would be... :drool:

Let me work toward the one first......(lol)

Agreed, as they would complete the set!

Can I have your Firehawk emblems? lol

I want them more than the air I breathe

I have only (1) extra rear fascia raised emblem, but now wish I had purchased (2) complete sets.
