+1 on the missing sticker. Left mine off when the car was repainted after a wreck 9 years ago. Make it much cleaner looking and easier to wax.

great thing about those decals is that they are already painted to match the color of your car. I would get a black one to put on the yellow.

This has nothing to do with anything, but WHY do people always spell bumper, "bumber?"

Yeah, I'll say it's high dollar. I bought a new one for my car last summer, it was about $45 from the dealer.

I'm looking at a 93 Firebird sales brochure, and it shows the bird on the nose.
