Default SS manta ray vinyl?

I really love the look of the manta stripe on an ss but i cant afford a custom paint job on the hood , so i was wondering if anyone knows if anyone makes a manta ray decal? that would be a lot cheaper, also would the rear deck and spoiler stripe go well with the manta?

those both look like they just outline the scoop that would probably look good though with the horspower rating cut out

Not hard, use soapy water and a squiggie and it works great.

No, I do not have anything on the spoiler.

I had it made by a local shop.

I believe it was 3rdgen decals that gives you two with your order cause they are so hard to put on. Might double check that though for sure. I know it was one of them though.

I had a pewter SS with the one from 3rdGenDecals and it looked great. It's the vinyl that covers just the scoop. I think you might be thinking about the scoop INSERT decal as well. That's a totally different deal
