I needed one section of the tail stripe for my super Bee. They were great to deal with on the phone, reasonably priced, and shipped the decal quickly. Recommended!

Why do you prefer Phoenix Graphics over Performance? Are the thickness of the product correct (mills)? I too am going to purchase a tail stripe next week.

James,...I've been customizing/ restoring mopars for about 30 years now, I've used anything and everything from NOS, to any repro offered over the years, while the decals that Dave Patik offers at Performance car graphics are nice, and accurate, the vynial film mat'l is just to thin and fragile,....Pheonix Graphics while offering the same accuracy, dose so on a much thicker film, feels like "factory", less chance of "stretching", or wrinkling the surface, plus I had some of the Performace Car Graphic stripes take on a permanant staining from bugs, soaps, tree sap, etc,.......Pheonix's mat'l seems to be more on par with factory style mat'l,....able to withstand abrasion, soaps, bugs, roadtar, etc,....if the stripe your gonna purchase is a reflective stripe,... avoid PCG's mat'l....their reflective is perhaps the most stain sensitive, plus kinda "blotchy" in the reflective mode!.....when it comes to dash/ instrument decals, I do prefer PCG's, because they are so fragile and thin, they look authentic when installed, they have a silk screened appearance, and while on the subject, I applaud Dave Patiks effort at PCG to offer some body and engine decals that others don't,..... the adhesive backing on some of these decals is almost non-exsistant!....I wish he would improve/ correct this!....plus the actual engine/ air cleaner decals don't seem to like the heat, they wrinkle, or shrink to quickly!.....I know it's a given with these decals, but I'd expect it over years not weeks!

Mike: Sounds like you've got a handle on this. I'm convinced.....I'll call Phoenix next week. I was told to watch for the thickness (measured in mills). You nailed that one too. Mucho Thanks Jim

While I have never used Phoenix Graphix I did try once about six years ago!
There ad reads "Any Decal, Any Car, Any Year" but when I asked them for the decals for my 1984 Omni GLH they said they didn't make them.
When I said what about your ad says is says "Any Decal, Any Car, Any Year" they hung up on me!
Now thats funny, I dont care who yah are.
