FIERO DECALSThe various adhesive vinyl letters originally applied to the Fiero have been called "decals". Since that seems to be the convention, we call them "decals" also. We make Fiero decals like the originals and we make custom decals. All of them are available in any color or size. Below is a display of what we have readily available. If you are looking for something different, just click SEND US A NOTE. Or to order, click on PLACE AN ORDER. We look forward to hearing from you. Instructions for applying decals to your car are at the bottom of this page and a few of our samples are below. GT Door Badge, $8/pair plus shipping. This is not a decal but a metal GT "badge" sold in pairs. They are used GM parts and can be mounted anywhere, but look very nice on the inner door panels. A larger picture is at the link below. As used parts there may be small chips as can be seen in the link photo. These can be easily repaired. If cleaned and painted with clear they look like new. Two attachment clips are included with each badge. Shipping to a US or Canadian address is $2. LINK TO LARGE PHOTOCar Cover Artwork, $20 including shipping in the U.S. for 12" Fiero logo. Customize any car cover with artwork of your selection using a paint mask (stencil) and fabric paint. The photo shows a 12" high Fiero logo but you can have custom artwork of any size. For example how about a logo with "Formula" or "Fiero GT"? Or Casper the Friendly Ghost, a Pegasus, Pontiac arrowhead or whatever your imagination can conceive. Our photo shows a 12" size and the mask is $20. Other artwork and sizes are priced according to area and complexity. The photo in the link shows the simple steps involved to apply the artwork. LINK TO INSTALLATION PHOTOSHood Decal, Pegasus, $65 including shipping in the U.S. Colors are typically silver, white, red, or black but other colors are available. The decal is about 36" high and 24" wide and fits between the raised "ribs" on the hood. It comes with backing material and is shipped in a roll. It is important to unroll the decal upon arrival and let it "relax" until it is flat prior to installation. Otherwise the tendency to curl will hinder application. Check out the "Rogue's Gallery" section for a photo of this decal on a customer car.
Hood Decal, Fiero Logo, $50 including shipping in the U.S. Colors are typically silver, white, red, or black but other colors are available. The decal is about 30" high and 23" wide. It comes with backing material and is shipped in a roll. It is important to unroll the decal upon arrival and let it "relax" until it is flat prior to installation. Otherwise the tendency to curl will hinder application.
Hood Decal, Checkered Flag Style, $80 including shipping in the U.S. Color can be just about anything, but black, white, red, and silver are typical. The decal covers the full width of the area between the raised "ribs" on the hood except for 2" in the center. The length is a bit longer than the hood itself to permit trimming to the exact hood contour. It ships rolled in two pieces (one for each side of the hood). Body Stripe Kit, $155 including shipping in the U.S. Typical colors are red, black, white, silver and yellow but other colors are available. Non-stock colors may involve additional cost. The kit includes 8" stripes sufficient to cover the full length of a Fiero. The hood portion includes the Pegasus-in-shield and two stripes (with 2"gap) as one entire decal. REMAINING STRIPES ARE 8" WIDE PIECES APPLIED INDIVIDUALLY. (This is to economize on material.) To achieve a 2" gap, we suggest you apply a 2" piece of masking tape down the center of your car, then align the individual 8" stripes against the tape. After the stripes are in place, remove the masking tape. The sample photos show the yellow Pegasus high on the hood to avoid the scoops but it can be centered on the hood or positioned to suit; you will need to let us know your preference. The white version by Alex Santos shows the standard version, although Alex's car has 9" wide stripes instead of 8".
"Pontiac" Windshield Decal, $30 including shipping in the U.S. Typically white but available in just about any color. Both decals shown were made from factory originals and include the proper curve to match the windshield. (Other aftermarket decals we've seen fail to include the proper curvature.) There are two styles available as shown below and the price is the same for either. Style 1 is the familiar "Pontiac" font and comes in two sizes, 30" and 40". The 30" size will miss the sweep of the wipers when properly placed, but the 40" will not. Style 2 is 40" wide and was used on the Indy Fiero Pace Car. It will miss the path of the windshield wipers. Here's a picture from Kevin Gibler showing the Style 2 decal on his handsome Indy: "Fiero GT" Windshield Decal, $45 including shipping in the U.S. Typically white but available in just about any color. This decal has the Fiero logo on either side and is curved to accomodate the windshield. "Formula" door decal, $25 including shipping in the U.S. ($45 for a pair). Colors are typically silver, medium gray metallic (the original factory color), or black, but available in just about any choice. This decal is about 2" high and 24" wide, just like the original. (You may find reproduction Formula decals specified as about 22.25" long; we believe these may have been for the Firebird Formula.) It comes with the backing material beveled on both ends for alignment purposes. Align the bevel with the bottom rear edge of the door and the decal is properly placed horizontally. (See layout drawing at the bottom of the page.) The "Formula" is also available as a windshield decal for $40. It is curved to match the top curvature of the windshield and provides clearance for windshield wipers. For maintaining accuracy when restoring your Formula, we believe our decals are the best. In 1997 we purchased original "Formula" door decals for our own restoration and used them as models for the decals we now sell. Also note that the dark colored "Formula" was not black but "Medium Gray Metallic" (this is specified in the GM 22P parts manual, last printed in 1990.) We have this color available along with silver and just about any other color you would like. Finally, our Formula decals are on backing paper cut to the same shape as the original factory version. This means you do not need to do any measuring to get the decal in exactly the right place on the door. Indy Door Decal, $40 each including shipping in the U.S. This decal was made from a factory original and is not just a simple knock-off made using block letters. Note that several of the letters are joined. This feature is missing from many of the aftermarket versions we have seen. Indy Engine Decals, $35 including shipping in the U.S. Colors can be changed if requested. Note that engine heat is hard on decals. We suggest using a paint mask (stencil) to paint the image. Paint masks are the same price as decals. For a photo of the installed Indy engine decals click HERE (Photo by Don Zeyer.) Indy Wheel Stripes, $40 + $4 shipping in the U.S. if a solo order. This is a set of four red wheel stripes that are mounted to the Indy wheels. The stripe is 3/16" wide. These are more expensive than we would like but it is due to the amount of material required. "Pontiac Racing" body decal, $12 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is about 2.5" high and 8.25" wide. It is printed in multiple colors on a clear adhesive background. The decal shown looks best on a a white car because of the black squares in the checkered flag. We also have the decal with white squares in the checkered flag for those cars with dark paint. This decal can be made as a windshield decal for $45. The windshield decal has "Pontiac" and the flag in white, with the arrowhead and "Racing" in red. See large image below. Air Cleaner Decal for GT, $20 including shipping in the U.S. ($15 without the "K&N Filter" decal.) The colors in the photo are red "Fiero GT" on silver background, orange K&N, and white checks. Other colors are available on request. Similar decals are available for other Fiero (same price) such as: "Fiero SE" (see below) "Fiero SS" "3.4L" can be added under the K&N (in check area) for $5 additional. Decals are also available with one or more solid stripes in place of the checkered flag effect. These can be further customized to suit your special project upon request. Air Cleaner Decal for 4 Cylinder Fiero, $15 including shipping in the U.S. The colors in the photo are red "Fiero" and "Tech 4" and white checks. Other colors are available on request. Also available are "Fiero 2.5L", "Iron Duke" and "Quad 4". We can change these to suit your special needs. The K&N decal can be added for $5.
Air Cleaner Decal for Fiero SE, $15 including shipping in the U.S. ($20 with a "K&N Filter" decal.) The colors in the photo are red letters on silver background and white checks. Other colors are available on request. Air Cleaner Decal for Formula, $15 including shipping in the U.S. (Add $5 for an orange "K&N Filter" decal.) The colors in the photo are red text on silver background with white checks. Other colors are available.
Tech 4 decal, $5 including shipping in the U.S. This is a duplicate of the "Tech 4" graphic found on the air cleaner of the 4 cylinder engines. Checkered Flag decal, $5 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is about 3" diameter and is shown on a custom coolant cap. Other sizes and configurations are available such as for the fuel door. "Handling by Lotus" decal, $5 including shipping in the U.S. About 3.5" long and 1" high, this decal can be used on the car body or interior. Colors shown are green on gold, but can be changed to coordinate with your car. And yes, we know it's a myth that Lotus designed any of the Fiero suspension systems, but let's keep the myth going among the uninitiated! "Ram Air" body decal, any size and color. Samples show possibilities using 6" version. These can be used in many locations including the interior (dash or door), on the engine, or the air filter housing. Pennock's Fiero Forum decals with User Name, $7 including shipping in the U.S., $1 of which is donated to the Forum. Size is 7" x 2.5". Color is typically white (which shows up best on exterior of rear car window) but any color is available. Metallics and reflectives will cost more. Plenum Paint Masks for V6 Fiero, Two of one type for $7 including shipping in the U.S. The V-6 Fiero in '85-86 has a decal on the intake plenum. We can provide replacement decals but they are heat sensitive (may last only a few years) so we offer these paint masks as an alternative. With these you can use high-temperature automotive paint to create the same effect. Other paint masks available on request.
Paint Masks for "Notchback" tail lights, $10 including shipping in the U.S. Kits are available for adding lights to the "notchback" Fiero which illuminate when the brakes are applied, similar to the lighted "Pontiac" on the Fiero GT. (Kits available HERE.) If you prefer to have other words instead of what comes with the light kit we can provide a reverse-cut paint mask. Contact us for what you have in mind for your project. Headlight Cover Decal for Any Fiero, $5 including shipping in the U.S. Available in any basic color (white, black, red, silver, gold, etc.) This decal accentuates the "Pontiac" lettering in the left front headlight cover.
"Pontiac" Bumper Decal, $6 including shipping in the U.S. Available in any basic color (white, black, red, silver, gold, etc.) This decal accentuates the recessed "Pontiac" lettering in the rear bumper which was available in some Fieros. "Fiero" deck lid decal, $10 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is used on the Formula, '87 SE, and '87-'88 Coupe and is typically black or silver. It is appoximately 6.4" wide and 2" high. "Fiero GT" deck lid decal, no red center pinstripe, $10 including shipping in the U.S. It is 10.65" long x 2" high and typically comes in red or black. We have found this decal on the '85 GT only and believe it may be an aftermarket replacement for the original. We believe the original decal had a red center pinstripe. See below. "Fiero GT" deck lid decal with red center pinstripe, $20 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is made from a single piece of adhesive vinyl printed in two colors which is the way it was done on the factory original. It is available with silver letters and a red center pinstripe. A second version with black letters and a red center pinstripe is available with all letters printed individually. Either version is about 10.6" wide and 2" high. "Fiero 2M4" deck lid decal, $10 including shipping in the U.S. Typically black or silver. This decal was used on Fieros with 4 cylinder engines. Overall size approximately 12.25" wide x 2" high (same as factory original). "Fiero 2M6" deck lid decal, $10 including shipping in the U.S. Typically black or silver. This decal was used on Fieros with 6 cylinder engines. Overall size approximately 12.25" wide x 2" high (same as factory original). "Fiero 2M8" deck lid decal, $12 including shipping in the U.S. Typically black or silver. This decal is the same style as the 2M4 and 2M6. The cost is slightly higher than the 2M4 and 2M6 because we make them in small quantities. Overall size approximately 12.25" wide x 2" high. "Fiero SD4" deck lid decal for the "Super Duty 4" engine, $12 including shipping in the U.S. Typically black or silver. This decal is the same style as the 2M4/2M6/2M8. The cost is slightly higher than the 2M4 and 2M6 because we make them in small quantities. Overall size approximately 12.25" wide x 2" high. "Fiero 4.9" or "Fiero 2M4.9" deck lid decal for the those who have converted to the Cadillac 4.9 engine, $12 including shipping in the U.S. Typically black or silver. "Indy Fiero" deck lid decal, $20 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is slightly different from the original. The original was made from a single piece of adhesive vinyl printed in silver and red. Ours has individual letters and pinstripes but nevertheless is a single decal. The decal shown is a duplicate of the original Indy deck lid decal. We can make other color combinations if you prefer. "Formula" deck lid decal, $12 including shipping in the U.S. This decal uses exactly the same font style as the "Formula" door decal shown above. It is about 10.75 inches wide and 1 inch high. We also have the word "Fiero" in the same font style as the "Formula" so you put the two together on your deck lid as "Fiero Formula", $20 including shipping in the U.S. Fiero logo fender decal, $8 or $13 including shipping in the U.S. This decal is the Fiero logo (winged horse in a shield) in a single color such as black. It is typically put on the fender in a manner similar to a Ferrari. The single color logo is $8. A background shield in a second color (as in the example below) can be supplied for an additional $5, or $13 total. The size is approximately 3.5" wide x 4" high. A similar decal is available with the Pegasus as used in our sail panels. These are similar in size and color options to the standard logo above. Of course all sizes can be changed to suit. Black Decal applied to color background. This background is yellow but can be other color.Wheel Center Decals $10 for a set of 5 in black, $15 for a set of 5 black with a color background. For $5 additional the Fiero logo can be in colors other than black. The photos below show the decals mounted on wheel center caps. Note that we are providing the decals only, not the caps. If you would like to have colored caps we can provide the colored background as shown in the yellow sample. (The background is available for any decal, not just the plain logo.) However if you paint the wheel caps the color will maintain it's looks longer than adhesive vinyl, so you may wish to consider painting your wheel caps and using the basic decal for the image. Also we cannot match the exact color of your car with vinyl.
Again, let us know if you have special requirements for graphics. For examples of possibilities take a look at our sail panel photos. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLYING DECALS TO YOUR CAR 1. Work at room temperature if possible since the adhesive on the decals works best when warm. 2. Clean the surface where the decals are to be applied, first with soap and water, then wipe down with isopropyl alcohol to remove any possible remaining oil, wax, or soap film. 3. There are three components to a decal. A slick "carrier paper", the artwork, and an adhesive paper called "transfer tape". Without removing any of these three parts of the decal, hold it in place by hand and move it around until you have it in what you think is the final position. (Use a measuring tape to get the decal parallel to body components.) 4. Apply a piece of masking tape full length across the top of the decal to hold it in position and step back to verify the final location. Re-position as necessary. 5. Using the masking tape as a hinge, flip the decal completely over so the opposite side is fully exposed. Starting at the top of the decal, use a fingernail or knife blade to carefully peel the carrier paper away from the artwork. Pull slowly. The artwork must not stick to the carrier paper; it should remain on the sticky transfer tape. 6. If you have a large decal such as used on a hood or windshield, use a spray bottle of water to wet both the decal and the car at this time. A few drops of soap added to the water will help. The water film will assist if you need to remove and reposition the decal, plus it will help get rid of bubbles when you use the squeegee in Steps 7 and 8. 7. When the carrier is peeled away, carefully lower the transfer tape with its artwork onto the car making sure the upper center section of the artwork touches first. As you slowly lower the decal, use a squeegee (finger pressure or a credit card are ok on small decals) to smooth the artwork from the center outward against the car. This will help minimize bubbles. Do NOT lower the entire decal (or large portions of it) and then apply the squeegee. Let the squeegee gently push the decal against the car so bubbles are not trapped under the vinyl. 8. With the transfer tape and masking tape still attached, rub the artwork through the transfer tape with a squeegee until it is firmly adhered. Look for bubbles at this time and work them out by squeezing them to the edge of the artwork. 9. Peel away the masking tape and transfer tape. Work carefully to insure that the artwork stays on the car and does not adhere to the transfer tape. This is especially important to watch if you have sprayed the decal with water. 10. With the transfer tape removed, burnish the artwork firmly but carefully if any bubbles remain. Do not catch the edges as this may cause the artwork to tear. Look at the artwork in good light to make sure bubbles are not left under it. If they are, burnish these areas carefully. It is possible to eliminate troublesome bubbles by puncturing them with a sharp pin, then burnishing. If water was used, it may take a few hours for traces to evaporate from under the vinyl; adhesion at this time may be weak. Now step back and admire your completed work. The decal is is adhered sufficiently to immediately use the car, but full ahesion will occur over about 48 hours as the adhesive cures. Tip: If you have a decal that has several components such as a windshield decal with several letters, it can be cut into smaller sections after it is in final position but before the backing paper is removed. For example the "Pontiac" decal can be cut between every second or third letter. This makes application easier with several small pieces instead of one large piece. In fact you can cut between every letter if that makes you more comfortable. |
