Where to get decals?

So my 87 5.7L Iroc just came back from paint, and I would like some decals for it. Looking for IROC decals that go on the doors and any other relevant stickers that would make the car look somewhat stock. Not sure where to find a good decal kit, so if anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great. Send me a PM please. Thanks.

I got my IROC door decals from Phoenix Graphix. The stripes are 3m.

Paint has to breath/cure for awhile, washing with just plane water and absolutely no wax for at least a few months. I would think the same goes for decals.

Ronusmc is right, I'd wait 2 or 3 months before putting any decals on. The longer the better.

Waiting is not necessary if hardener is used and most likely it is,I wouldn't wait that long.

Is it necessary? Yes and no. Its one of those things that probably won't cause an issue but it *might* so why risk it if you don't have to? At the auto body shop I work for we put on smaller decals after 24 hours, but anything big like that we have the customer come back in a couple months. Though at my last shop we never waited and didn't have a come-back for the whole year I worked there.

Either way, paint isn't done curing for a long time no matter what hardener you use.
