Default Decals/Inlays

Where is the best place to get them from, for the car in my sig??

I'm going to do the door "Firebird," the center panel in between the tail lights, and the PONTIAC below them, and the front bird on the nose.
Remember this is a LT style car.

Different colors available.

Just purchased the 'bird vinyl and lettering that is in between the taillights..

I plan on:
1.) 1500 grit
2.)3000 grit
4.)All the buffing
5.)Apply vinyl let dry
6.)Then spray clear over it to keep it there and give it the extra sparkle.

Has there been any further news on the front LT1 bird?

i.e. pricing on different materials? Options? Size? availability?

I've been waiting for months for this to appear on the site, but nothing yet.
