Pace Car stripe

I have a 1978 Pace Car. The red stripe that goes complety around the car has a few flaws in it. Where can i buy something that would match the original without buying the complete set of decals for a lot of $$$$
Thanks

Phoenix Graphix are the major sellers for the automotive aftermarket muscle car graphics. Their decals are reproduced per the original GM licensing specifications and you can pick up a set of the "accent stripes" without buying them all. If you want only the one, call and ask but they use 3M quality film.

I just completed some research on pace car decals and the materials used to reproduce decals. You may find once applied, that the "new" decal is brighter than the original. This will be due to the age of the old and the reflectivity of the new that includes a clear coat not available in 1978. The clear coat offers better UV protection and resistance to solvents...like gasoline.

Keep us posted once you purchase and apply. Be curious to hear of the results.
