where did you get the vinyls? and my headlights are scratched cuz they were given to me, so i may just buy new black ones.

The black TYC headlights will flow well with that paint job.

I bought a roll of Avery white carbon fiber vinyl on ebay. It matches the GA white. I have it on my door handles and fuel door.

I made templates out of printer paper, marking with a pencil and trimming until it was the size I needed then hand cut the vinyl. I flipped the template over and cut one for the other light. I also cut it so the design was going in the same direction.

I used black 1/8" pinstripe and cut the Pontiac logo out of some black vinyl with an exacto knife. The nice thing about using vinyl is that you can slide it around to where it fits best then dab the excess water out with a paper towel.

It was a nice winter project last January.

I saw that you were checking out my cardomain. I have to update the pictures. It still has the chrome tails and door handles.

I can sell you some vinyl if you want it. I'll have to check ebay to see what the price per foot is. It's 15 inches wide. It matches the GA white better than Dupli-color.

Cool. I had put the chrome door handles and the white pillar overlays on the car from CustomGA, but took them off yesterday because they didn't seem right for some reason. I only had them on for a month or so.

Nice way to spend and waste $50, huh...

Live and learn. You can get the vinyl, make a template and cut your own. I use scissors, a metal straight edge and an exacto knife.

You can do custom art by making it on a drawing program and printing out the template. I made that name on my headlight that way.

I might just have to do that. Thnx Jim.

If you want some cheap vinyl to play with, buy some contact paper. It comes in all colors and some patterns.

It looks good just need to wither tint the tail lights and re-think the exhaust maybe something more stream line with the kit and not circular. Square or Oval tips?
