Default "CORVETTE" Decal for brakes?

Want to powdercoat my calipers, but still want the "CORVETTE" lettering. Those who have PC their calipers, where are you getting the stickers for the lettering? I know it isnt a sticker from the factory but I am not sure how else you could replicate the same lettering.'

Thanks

Interested in this as well. I don't figure a decal would hold up to well and clear coating after decal install sort of defeats powdercoating.

Stenciled on in paint maybe after the powder Coat? Anyways, you can exchange your calipers for rebuilt calipers from TPS motorsports in pretty much any color you want...and it will come with the vette lettering.

I had my spare set painted with high temp paint and the decals applied and then
clearcoated with high temp clear coating afterwards.
I did purchase them in the US, will have a search for the company I used.

I just bought a set today from a company called Fourth Circle Designs.
The decal isn't listed on their site. They have them in stock. Just send them an e-mail with what you want.

Fourth Circle Designs is the same place I have used on my current Z06 and previous Grand sport. Both held up great with zero problems. I didn't clear coat either.
