Default 4th circle designs items in stock.

Went to 4th circle designs to order the PONTIAC overlays for the rear bumper, door overlays, front license plate cover overlays and I see they no longer have the items listed for purchase.

I tried contacting them but they never got back to me. Question is 2 fold. Does anybody know what happened and why their items available for the Trans am reduced by half?

Does anybody know of a place other than Hawks where I can find the items listed above in gold metallic?

Really sucks because I have half of what I was going to get already from 4th circle.

Not sure what to tell you, I haven't ordered from them in a while. I'd guess if they took a lot of items off the site they probably weren't selling well or they didn't make enough profit... Or perhaps they weren't licensed to sell things with the names/logos? Just ideas, I have no clue...

But, I'd highly recommend going with the fill-ins/ overlays from emblempros.com. I'm sure that pretty much anyone who has dealt with both will tell you that the actual emblems are much better than the vinyl fill-ins. If he doesn't have a color listed you want, at least contact them and see what they can do, it may just be a matter of them not having something listed on the site. Roger is usually very fast to get back to you with answers.

I looked at emblem pros and it didn't really seem like they had what I was looking for. I will send them an email and see what they say.

I know 4th circle items used to be licensed by gm maybe they lost their license

I second this ^^^ I work with Brent a lot for decals. He just does decals for a hobby and may take a while to get something custom, but hell work with you to get exactly what you want

If you want to go cheap, vinyl is fine. Brent has been great to work with anytime I've gotten anything from him. The overlays from emblempros though expensive are light years better than vinyl. The vinyl was never perfectly sized, which is understandable.

Nice..... What a douche. They used to be my go-to source for decals, looks like I'll find someone else now.

This right here. The stuff Emblempros makes is not cheap and will holdup for the life of your vehicle, and it looks better than vinyl. Plus, the different color options they have is a huge plus.
