No intention of doggin ya, but why lable it? work under the hood and on the interior. Trans Ams speak for themselves. To me that is a ***** trait. Give the car a lot of care and time, people will respect it more. If the peps don't know what it is, they don't deserve to. Sorry, the only riced out thing I'd do to my car is an underbody light kit. I may be a girl, but I love cars and I hate when people do that. No offense though,it's your car and your taste.

i think she's right. adding another windshield decal isn't going to help avoid any '*******' comments (not that it can't be done tastefully, a la the 1989 pace cars, show cars, etc, but more often than not it probably doesn't look quite right) also, if you have window tint, at least on the sides, i would say remove it. i've found the best way to avoid those types of comments is to keep the car looking mostly like stock and very clean.

if you're looking for the factory-style decals, or even the giant hood birds or winshield words, try www.autografics.com , they have a varietry of very-close-to-factory decals very cheap. the sizes and shapes are GM licensed, but they make the shape out of vinyl instead of painting to the back of a clear vinyl decal like GM. they look good though. a whole set of regular TA decals is about $35.

Underbody light kits arnt a r!cer trait, too many people associate them with those people. They were done on hotrods and show cars way before r!cers came into the picture.

EDIT--> I bought them off of the ebay user :decalstore.com. I couldn't fins any on his website, but if you email the company with a picture attatched, i am sure that they can tell you what decal it is. The website is http://www.decalstore.com/

Also this site has a huge inventory of decals...

Ive considered the "PONTIAC" sticker that comes ont he TTA's. Thats the only one id ever put on my car. Even still, Im not sure if id like it. Sure looks cool on the TTA's though.

I'm looking for a set of stickers that I can put in the stock locations, like between the front fender and the door, that says Tranz Am instead of Trans Am. It's just a thought tho.
