Default Hood Scoop Decal

Hey guys. I searched but it didnt really turn anything up..

I am looking for a comonay who makes quality decals for the SS hood scoops. I want the decal that goes ON TOP of the scoop, not in the middle region.

Also, I would like to put a black panel underneath my tailights. I see alot of people wih red and pewter cars do this. Do you guys order the part from GM or do people with black cars often trade up?

Thanks in advance for the help.

You can search Manta for the hood scoop, and Berger for the back panel. Most people have the manta stripe painted on. And the berger panel is also painted.

What would the average cost be for getting each of those painted?

The berger panel I believe would look fine, but like you said I don't know about the rest.

Also have you thought about if you're going to go with a flat or a gloss for the berger?

If you do the berger look into getting the stainless Camaro inserts.

I think I am going to do gloss. I don't know how good flat would look on a pewter car..
