A car that's been in production over 55 years speaks for itself. Windshield decals on Vettes are rice IMO.

Default You can always remove it...

I would buy the windshield decal. You can always remove it if you get tired of it. I paid $1.00 for this at the museum. Placed it inside the hatch.

lol... My dad had an 84 when I was a kid. My uncle came from Arizona to visit and told him "wow, nice fiero!"

I've never seen another instance where one was mistaken for something else. My old Porsche 944 and 931 would constantly get "Nice RX7" though.

Well, different strokes for different folks. I've thought about getting that "The Legend Lives" windshield decal as sort of a tribute. I don't know that I will though. Maybe if it were static so I could just put it on sometimes. Also I'm a little afraid the sticker will delaminate my windshield...

To the OP, like a few people said, you probably need to look for custom decal places. There are a million. They may even already have the logo. I wouldn't expect it to cost more than $30 or thereabouts.
