Ebay door decals

Has anyone purchased decals from the sellers on ebay ? I see them anywhere from $20 on up...I know about Phoenix, just wondered if those on ebay are any good ?

I'm only interested in the IROC door decals.

Thanks.

Re: Ebay door decals

Ebay is usually some clown with a vinyl cutter making shoddy knock offs. Most of the time you can spot them from a distance, even if the car is moving, that's how bad they look. If you don't mind that they look like total crap, go ahead and save a buck. If you want the real thing, spring for Phoenix Graphics or Stencils and Stripes. The guy that does most of the Ebay decals has a REALLY bad reputation around here. He was actually banned from thirdgen.org for being an a$$hole.

I'll second the Phoenix Graphics stripe kit. Granted they're the tape variety (not moulded) but they went on ok and look good. The door IROC-Z was a b*tch to get straight though. Little pricey ($200) so might be worth getting a pro to put them on. Wish I had.

Re: Ebay door decals

There is at least one person on ebay who did a very good job copying the factory decal. I bought a set and am pleased with how they look. Ive had the gm factory decals and these and really cant tell too much of a difference and for 20 bucks i couldnt complain.
