You'll have to buy a new piece if you want the exact same thing otherwise there are two routes you can go:
1. Buy a decal and just stick it over the GM's imprint.
2. Do the polish mod to remove the bird/trans am imprint altogether.

Sand it off and polish it. Then buy the emblems.

ws6store.com may have them if not then brent franker has them for sure. Just do a search for brent franker on yahoo or something. You will have to clean the existing panel and sand it otherwise it will leave an outline of where the paint was.

Firebird tail filler panel (from 93-97 Firebird V6) = 5977293---------------------$105.60 w/s&h&tax
Firebird tail filler panel (from 93-97 Formula) (plain black - no logo) = 5977294--$102.13 w/s&h&tax
Firebird tail filler panel (from 94 25th Anniv TA) (white logo) = 5977296--------- (Not available anymore)
Firebird tail filler panel (from 93-94 Trans Am) = 5978095----------------------$100.72 w/s&h&tax
Firebird tail filler panel (from 95-97 Firebird 3800 GT V6) = 5978095-------------$100.72 w/s&h&tax

Firebird tail filler panel (from 02 CETA) (silver logo) = 10312725-----------------$108.09 w/s&h&tax

"Which one" depends on your car year/style/model etc.

(Wow, what an old thread revival, ...)

Hey vipert/a,

Just checking to see if you ended up picking up the decals you were looking for and where you ended up getting yours.

I was recently rear ended by a semi and the body shop is telling me that the company that made the center piece with the "Trans Am" and the bird is now out of business. So far the WS6 Store is looking like the place I'm going to go for the logos.

SA

P.S. Does anyone have a pic of what the logos look like in blue?

I've got two of the rear center sections this week, that have the 'Trans Am' & the filled-style Phoenix bird in Sunset Orange Metallic!
They look pretty killer in the sunlight!
I'll post a couple photos tomorrow night, ...
But here's a couple photos of the 'Ram Air' in NBM.

Another thread back from the dead?

You can check out Brent Frankers site, he's an F-Body enthusiast and a great guy to deal with. Look at the bottom of the vinyl overlays page for a bunch of install pictures. Hope you find what your looking for.
