Are you seeking a raised look, then the Stainless Steel or Acrylics are your best bets IMO. The polished stainless steel products are top notch quality, and pricey, but well worth the investment IMHO. I've had mine on for over a year now, and look just as good as the day I put them on! Easy maintenance too!
Good luck on whatever you decide, and here is the link of products

nice hawk
not long ago i afrined of mine was showing me that magazine trying to give me ideas for my interior very tastfully done i might add.
as far as the stainless its not very thick altough better than vynil. considering the price and the fact that mine will have to be designed then made i can imagine the price would double possibly tripple. dont know if i could justify spending that kind of money on something i might not be entirely happy with. that and i want it in red. but thanks for looking that stuff up for me

You could always go to a wood carving place with the Trans Am emblem and have them cut you some out. Skim coat them with some bondo sand paint and stick? Ghetto? I don't know....but who would notice if dont right.? Or you can get them to cut out some acrylic, stack two together and skim, paint? I don't know, for that matter you could by an acrylic set and scuff and paint?

Just get the following lettering in black (your car color?) and make your own word. Then put it all together in a STRAIGHT line. None of that crooked crap.
Firebird
Formula
+ Trans Am
___________
Fire Turd or
man law <----upside down "m" for "w"
blame saTan
masTer For speed <---need 2 Firebird logos
What else can you create? This could get interesting......new thread anyone??
