Anyone know of anyone who makes/sells magnetic door Pace Car replica decals?
Someone in the past had mentioned they had some???
Would like to be able to put them on for shows etc, and take them off for the street. Don't want to use the originals still in the packaging.

Rob,
I've been thinking of making a set for my car. I've got the decals on now, but I would like to go stealth mode sometimes. I got the step by step from the guy who did the last ones, and it's not really a problem for me to make them. I made a test set (small), and they didn't lay perfectly flat, but maybe a full size set will be ok. If you want me to make a set for you, email me and I'll try to get on it next week.

ok, guys,
I'm doing the magnets. $120 shipped. They do not include the decals themselves. You will need to get them from John Pearcy, he has the best price and supports our cars. If you want, he can ship decals to me and I will apply them for you.

If you already have decals on your car like I do, I'll make a slightly larger magnet which will COVER your decals so you can go 'stealth'

Lee made me a set, they fit perfect on the door, going from the front of the door to the back, so you only see the top seam of the magnet. Paint matches perfect!
Thanks again Lee.

Ok NEEDATTA, I just took these today, here the pics of the magnets Lee made me.
NOTE: Don't leave them on the car for weeks at a time, mine developed some tiny rust spots as if there were some metal flakes on the back of the magnet. Took some hard rubbing with wax to remove the spots.

Hey Rob,
Your magnets look great. I hope you are enjoying them and your "status" of PACE CAR.
Where were the rust spots? Were they around the edges? I sanded the edges to smooth out the cuts I made and make them smoother. Or were they in the middle somewhere, where they picked up small metal chips/shavings? Curious, but I guess that's what magnets do. I'm glad they rubbed out ok.

They were mainly on the ends for about 3 or 4 inches worth, but spotted thru out. Probably just picked up some fine shavings somewhere. They all buffed out.

Lee,

Do you think you could make me a set of magnets for the doors? I have the doors decals on permanantly right now, but would like to get a set of magnetic ones made up, in case of accident or something! I will e-mail you privately if you wish!

Lee,
I would be interested in a set of blank magnetics as well.
