89 firebird formula 2 tone paint question

so i just bought a 1989 firebird formula with a 305 and a two tone paint job and i have no build sheet cause interior was replaced and i was just wondering were i could get the stripe for the bottom i called phoenix grpahics and ordered the decals but they said that they didnt have a stripe for it. Then i called are local gm dealer and he told me that these cars were not two tone and did not have a stripe so i'm kinda of at a lost here. any helped would be greatly appreciated.

Door RH or LH - 10091194
Rear Quarter RH or LH - 10091194
Fender RH - 1018730
Fender LH - 1018731
Front Facia Lower - 10091190

B) Red/Gunmetal/SILVER (78A)
Rear Facia RH - 10091202
Rear Facia LH - 10091203
Door RH or LH - 10091196
Rear Quarter RH or LH - 10091196

I suspect they may have been discontinued at this point...

I would do a search on the web, you might be able to find something close...

Contact PhoenixGraphics and ask them to produce the correct stripe for you. They may not be aware that they are missing this detail.
