I will be getting some of the wear stickers made I can get more made and they will be definitely under $100 not positive yet though but I need a template of the two side pieces. These will be exact replica's and will be made of a good quality 7 year vinyl and can be positioned like window tint then the glue sets. This would be better anyway because most of the decals that are left are yellowed now. If anyone is interested or can make me a template of the side pieces LMK. If you can make a quick trace of the sides I will pay for postage and give $5 or whatever for your time.

here is what I am talking about.

What side pieces? The quarter panel caps? I wouldn't think you'd need a template of those to make the vinyl decal?

If you really do get some of these made I will buy one from you, no kidding around. I don't have one on my car right now, just a few extra coats of clear from when I got the tonneu cover repainted a few years ago.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

these are the side pieces I was talking about. If anyone can make a template off theirs I would really appreciate it.

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

Oh you mean the other small portion of vinyl not attached to the tonneu cover. I see. I forgot that was even there.

tweeker

Im down for a set unless I dont already have a set from hawks by then

capn_chaos

I've been looking for a set. I'm about to have my car painted and the one that's on there now is flaking off.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

I could get them made without the side pieces for now but I would really like to have the side pieces done too. all I need is a trace around them.

capn_chaos

I went out first thing this morning to trace the side pieces but for some reason I don't have them on my car... sorry dude. You're right though it would be better to have a complete kit. I can see where the paint is scuffed right where those side pieces would cover.

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

If all you need is a trace I will try and remember to go to my car after work today and trace them out for you. It's hard to remember to do things like this when the car isn't stored at my house you know

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

I would really appreciate it.

travisnd

If its still light outside when I get home, I'll trace mine for ya....

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

As long as I get one. They need to be exact though since I don't have them on mine. This will be the final spec on it. Also it doesn't matter if it is just a trace of just one of the side pieces because they should be symmetrical. I will get a prototype made first just like anything else but this will not be something that will take forever but it is not a cheap project either so bear with me.

John, what is the hardwear attached to the inside edge of your tonneau in the 1st picture? I don't have that. Thanks!
John

Crouchman

iTrader: (1)

Sorry, just looked, I don't have the small ones either.

gatorcola

I have an '88 and I don't have that hardware either. Curious also?

tweeker

Are you guys talking about the metal clip lookin thing thats a shoulder belt I don't think 88's had those

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

That's right for shoulder belts. That is a borrowed pic mine doesn't have should belts either. They were only on the 89+ verts. Anybody get that trace for me? I am going to try and get these done this week hopefully but I want the side pieces done too.

Scooby Doo

I just traced mine, send me your e-mail and I will scan in tomorrow at work and e-mail it to you, or I can fax it or snail mail.
I put a piece of paper over the decal and scribbled on the paper, the edge of the decal left a dark outline in the scribbling. I could only do the passenger side as the divers side is wrinkled.
I don't want any money for it, just want to be able to buy a new decal for less than 100. Hopefully car goes into paint in the next 30 days.

I would rather have it sent so that way I know it is exact.

I know it would be alot easier scanning but I want to be sure everything is exact or in my mind this would be a waste. I really appreciate it. Thanks

Scooby Doo

It will be in the mail tomorrow. I traced it 5 times, it is not a basic shape.
thanks for the effort -Jeff

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

yeah I saw it is kind of an awkward oval shape.

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

I was getting ready to go trace it for you but saw that Jeff has already helped you out. I can't wait to be able to buy one of these.
Hey Jeff, are you coming to the cruise with FAST on March 9th? I'm going but probably going to end up driving my gf's IROC-Z.

Scooby Doo

Just wanted to make sure you received the paper with the shape of the little side decals, and that they provided you with the information you needed.
Also checking in to see your progress, I think my car will go in for paint next week and trying to decide what to do... Buy an older (yellowed) set for an unbelievably high price, buy some of the 3M Clear Mask, wait and get a set from you.
Thanks again, -Jeff

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

I got them Sat, thanks. they look like they will work I am checking in with my vinyl guy today to see how much longer this will take. I am going to try and get some done this week but no guarantees. I should know more by the end of the day.

Scooby Doo

Great, thanks for the update.
If those don't work I can try to peel off one of the decals and send it over when I drop the car off for paint.
Thanks again.

capn_chaos

Thanks to both of ya'll for all the effort. Let me know when you get them made I'm definately in need of a set.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

I had a little hold up so it will more than likely be towards the end of next week.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

just giving everyone a heads up it SHOULD and I really stree should be next week sometime. This is if everything goes as planned if there is any other hold ups I will post them also. I have been really busy trying to get these going and I have been doing some metal polishing on the side also.

WillSpeedy

I am down for a set also. Although my car won't be painted for a year and a half. I am building a garage this spring/summer so I can't start ripping it apart till then. I'll just throw it in the pile of parts I'm building up in my basement.
Rims, headers y- pipe, off road pipe, cat back exhaust, electric cut out, vortec heads, vortec tpi intake, 58mm throttle body, AS&M LTR's, walbro fuel pump with new wiring harness, door hinge pin kit, Torque arm, crossmember w/driveshaft loop, LCA's, LCA relocation brackets, clear side markers, clear turn signal, POR-15, Lead Free body solder kit and a million to go.
Dam it's going to be sweet when it's done.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

well yet another hold up I am really pushing to get these done by next week because I have been getting really busy lately. so just hold on a little bit longer and they will get done.

JWKbride

Sounds good, count me in

do you have the specks if so i have the vinel cutter at my shop i could prob bang them out asap. PM me if you need me.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

just an update. I have to go see the progress made so far but will be at least another week. This is definitely taking longer than I want.

NoCal91Convert

I've had my car painted for a year or so, it definately wears without the vinyl. I'm responding so I can be in the thread, I'd like to get a set also. BTW, I found an pristine dash pad off a 92 firebird the other day. I hear they won't work on Camaros, but if any of you are interested let me know. It is like new, absolutely fantastic.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

alright finally some good news I should have these next week. so anyone that is ready to buy now pm me so I can get a list on how many I need for this run. These will include the extensions in front of the tonneau also Thanks to Jeff By Tuesday I will have the final cut that way I can see if any changes need to be made From what I saw they look exact but unless they are oem quality or better I won't reproduce them. Anyway anyone that is definitely interested pm me. Thanks

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

Oh yeah $100 shipped this is better vinyl than gm used also and the adhesive is top quality also. This price will eventually come down but I won't actually be making anything for a while thanks to all the programming cost.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

so far I have 3 dedicated buyers. Let's get this list growing.

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

You can add me as a buyer but not until this summer. I will buy one though.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

this is just pretty much a I didn't forget about you update. I have had yet another hold up but should be seeing something soon.

gcgarner

Definitely put me down for one. Do I need to PM you my contact info? How do I send you payment?

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

still trying to get everything perfect on these but I have your username. I will pm you when they are ready. right now I am waiting on the vinyl to come in. I am using the best vinyl I could find so these will outlast the originals. This is taking alot longer than I wanted it to. But these will be ready soon. I am also going to be talking to some other people about getting some other stuff made. it will more than likely be fiberglass stuff. The black vinyl covered piece on the tonneau cover is one and hopefully the cheap plastic crap on the top where the handles and visors are. I haven't even started with any of that other than having all of them so don't get your hopes up on that. I am not going to be taking any payments on anything until it is sitting here waiting to be shipped. I want to make sure it all meets my standards before anything is ever changing hands.

JWKbride

As a reminder, I'm in....please keep me posted when you got it made and send me a note jwkbride@bellsouth.net

Crouchman

iTrader: (1)

too late to get on the list? Count me in, if you can add me. I said I wanted a set, but hadn't been able to totally commit until now. Thanks John!

If anybody want any tips on how to install it once you get it, let me know. I install this stuff for a living. I dont these pieces are to tough for first timers imho.

Christopher

iTrader: (16)

Just wanted to put this back at the top and see if anyone else is interested I am getting really close on these. I am still waiting on the vinyl it is on backorder and should have been here by now, but isn't. anyway I am keeping a list of everyone so I know how many to do on the first run.

Trick414

Put me down FIRM for a set.

NoCal91Convert

I am noticing my paint wearing pretty quickly, I am hoping it is just the clear and will rub it out before installing the vinyl. I am wondering, however, if the vinyl can be removed and reused if I decide to repaint.

jstoltz

iTrader: (16)

Without talking to my vinyl guy I am going to have to say no just because these are being made to oem standards so the adhesive should and will be like the original so it is pretty much when you put it on it is there to stay. If it is wearing I would suggest to apply extra wax for the time being all around the tonneau and get a couple coats of clear applied before applying the sticker.

had fun last night...opening night for the season for a weekly cruise-in. Had to have been over a hundred cars. No 3rd gens, but lots of nice stuff. Finally felt like spring.
