I got the New 6" 3M Gold Stripes in the other day. I had to order one more as these don't fill the entire side of the car but enough to get the Door covered. So I after work and dinner I went out to do some Measuring. I haven't been so creative in a while so here is my result View attachment 237426
Studying the Nascar Numbers from the 80's I came up with the one, since the M80 was based off Nascar and though I really like 69hurstolds design I though this is probably most likely the way Chevy would have had this done if this Trim package were made available. Monday is a day off so I am going to go to a Graphics Shop and see if they will cut a section then cut the lettering out of that for both sides
do you have a sign business in your area, they could help with this and put it on but gonna cost some $. i bought 83-84 monte ss style stickers in red for $30 and went to a sign guy to put em on along with some clear paint protection strips cost about $120. they can even sit with you and do an entire custom sticker so you dont have to just conform to a factory design. i done that once too for my previous ss.

Actually I just realized I need to make the "M" a little fatter, luckily I have the room to make that correction.

I'll keep this in mind. I haven't done the Body Work or Paint yet but I am going to as early as next month, still a lot of parts Interior/Exterior I will be ordering soon. But for the time being I'll see what the cost will be from the Graphic Shop IE: (Shop around).
