Default Challenge Car questions

Hi. I am the new owner of an un-raced '89 Challenge car, and was wondering if anyone has an idea who has a decal kit available. I've seen one advertized on a forum, but not sure which one. Also, any suggestions on something that resembles Dymags? I don't want cheap off-shore stuff, as the car will see some track time. I'd love a real set, but I don't really want to spend quite that much.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ted.

Is your car an "unconverted" Challenge car? Is it Charcoal, by chance?
Come from the Chicago area? I recently sold one to a dealer in IL.

I have a set of Challenge Dymags for sale. PM me if interested.

"Brett Richmond" has the Challenge Series decal kits for sale.

Give me a call 330 825 4206 And I can put you in touch with the original supplier you have to give you serial # and prof of ownership to prove your 89 is one of the 60 produced.Save your money and buy a set of Dymags!!They are the only rim that has the correct Challenge look.Or like Vette Daddy said Brett has a set for sale.I would be curious what car you have?Rob

You might be close enough to SCCA vette and his shop. He did up some graphics and his car looks great. I believe he has a shop that applies and makes graphics. Here is his profile:

When I talked to him last, he was not dealing with that company anymore(no longer working there). Someone else owns it now. I went to them when I wanted to get some graphics done up but that company did not have them to do. I had to go and have them recreated for myself.

Lets see some picture of that car. What is the last 4 digits of the VIN number??

And if you want custom Challenge Graphics, I can hook you up with that. Can give you the era appropriate look or with a modern twist. I've still got the '88 I believe to recreate. I really need to find the time to finish those up.
