Any idea why GM charges so, so much for them??? Because they can??? Or is there perhaps something about these that is more than just a decal with gm's name on it??? I will likely buy them but ouch, those are expensive...
thanks again for the link.... bob...

GM contracts with a company in Lake Orion, Michigan (KAY AUTOMOTIVE GRAPHICS) that makes the stripes for them. GM OEM's are nothing more than laminated vinyl and you pay for that tiny logo. They are not high quality CAD cut decals.

Here is my silver oem set that came with my car:
Here is the template (on the car):
Silver just doesn't flow well with my car, so I chose basic black vinyl.
Shop around! There are venders here that can get oem's for you cheaper than what the link has posted.

Oh, one more thing... Did you put your's on yourself??? If so, easy or hard??? At some point, i assume you pull off a backing and then have to stick them down, hopefully in the right place?? bob...

White is most certainly available from GM, it's called Pearl White and looks great on my Inferno Orange Convertible.

What it will be is Crystal Red Tint GS, Convertible, 3LT, with a black top and black interior, cross flag logo on the seats, GS chrome wheels and likely the Pearl White stripes on the fenders if I buy them...
But I will post pictures when it becomes a real car...
thanks... bob..

I bought mine from a board member recommendation for $125 shipped one piece, two color, with cross flags. The shop had a local dealer actually come in and scan a set of OEM. I forget the material he used but it is professional grade and not much out there is better when I looked it up. He is not a forum sponsor so you will have to p/m me if you are interested in his info. I believe if I post it up thread will get edited.
Here are my aftermarket stripes:

Thanks for all the responses but I still have the following question... If I decided I wanted the GM stripes, can I buy them from a dealer??? Or was the only way to get the original GM version to buy them as part of the heritage package???? Is it a GM accessory I can buy from GM now??? Or not????
And regarding the one poster who had the set of silver stripes, thanks but if I get them I would likely get white to go on the Crystal Red Tint car I have on order...
thanks... bob..
