Sorry to say this but I think Autogragfics is the worst place to purchase decals. They are not licensed by GM and highly inaccurate. I have seen their decals on a few cars and just shake my head at the errors.

I'd give Phoenix Graphix a try.

http://www.phoenixgraphix.com/

I have their decals for my 1983 T/A and they are highly accurate compared to the Autografics decals.

There is also:

I haven't tried them out but I may in the future when it is time to repaint my car.

FYI, I've heard the same thing. As well as bad business techniques. Photo stealing and stuff. I think there were a few threads about it either here or the vendor board.

It all depends on the car. if you spend a few grand on a paint job, I'd go with Phoenix or hunt on e-bay for GM pieces. If you have a maaco/scheib paintjob auotgrafics is more than adequate.

I hear people always talking smack about NOS GM decals, yet, I have never gotten a bad one yet, even if they are old.
I stick with GM all the way!
I ordered a decal set from Phoenix Graphics for my second gen, and the bird has the wrong colors, as well as the rear spoiler decal coming off!
As for third gens, I can't tell you about the earlier ones, but I have seen some sets that have the stripes below the dots ('85 and up style) come as two separate peices, not like GM, all as one together.
What color car do you have, or what color decals do you need.
I have quite a few NOS peices, I can check to see what I have.
I haven't dealth with anyone else, but GM.

Up to you,

George
