NEED HELP FINDING GOOD DECAL FOR POWER BULGE HOOD

My 82 firebird is going to a body shop in about a week to get a new full paintjob. I have the trans am powerbulge hood i believe its called on, which raises up on the one side, and i need to find a good paintjob/decal to do with it.

Can anyone post a picture with the same hood with a good paintjob. Like if anyone has a picture of a trans am power bulge hood with stripes or the pheonix graphic it would be VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY MUCH appreciated. I am lost and do not know what to do.

I am going white and i need something to make it stand out more that is why im asking for ideas on whether to do a stripe or if a pheonix graphic would even fit on it. I am going white to retain the cars original color.

Re: NEED HELP FINDING GOOD DECAL FOR POWER BULGE HOOD

I like my hood without graphics , the only graphic I plan on adding is the engine type on the cowl. Unless you like the stock look, huge custom hood decals look tacky.

Re: NEED HELP FINDING GOOD DECAL FOR POWER BULGE HOOD

Hey,

Did you settle on a decal? I'm putting the same hood on my '86 and will soon be in the same predicament. Send me a pic!

Thanks!

I would also like to see some more decals. We finished the car and would like to put an outlined 'bird on the hood. Something similar to the 81 like pictured above, but an outlined version that will look good on the power bulge hood. Thanks.
