Hey guys. I'm currently in the process of putting my '99 Formula back together and am looking for the Emissions Decal that sits just below the serpentine belt routing diagram on the driverside shock tower.
It's a 25 year old car, so GM has long ago discontinued production of part number 12560551 and every site online says they're either on back order or unavailable.
I have purchased a number of reproduction decals (including the Belt Routing Diagram seen in the photo) from Hawks Motorsports, but I don't see this one on their website.
Does anyone know of a company or person who is producing, or would be willing to create, one (or more) of these for me? I'd be happy to purchase multiple, if that's what it takes.
There are several companies that do reproduction decals for body shops and the like, they might have something like this on file. I used to have some bookmarks for such companies saved, but I lost those with a computer failure several years ago. And I don't remember the business names.
Having said that, if you can get a really good image and proper dimensions, you might be able to send the file to a custom decal maker to reproduce it. If you go that route, I definitely have a good recommendation - a company called "Nicer Decals and More". Bobby does a lot of stuff on Ebay and for the Corvette crowd, I've bought several of his products over the last decade for my various old dinosaurs. He's a great guy to deal with, and his products are super high quality (excellent vinyl & adhesion, excellent fade resistance of the ink). He does custom stuff too.

Just visited Nicer Decals and More website and sent Bobby a message.
Thanks very much RPM WS6.
By any chance did you contact hawks to see if the could have it duplicated?
I recall asking my dealer about this a while back when I was trying to obtain a replacement decal. I think this is the company they referred me to. https://www.ecsvin.com/index.html

THAT is one of the companies that I used to have saved as a bookmark before losing them all, as mentioned above; thanks for providing that!

I haven't contacted Hawks, but thought that might be a good path to explore as well.
I have yet to hear back from Nicer Decals and More, so I will most definitely be checking out the link you provided. Thank you!
