Flat black, it looks like I made a bone head mistake with the 340 decals. :banghead:
I'll send him a set and tell him how to remove them.

  :lol: When I was putting them on I just guessed at which was they sloped.
Doesn't bother me to much, I'll just tell anyone that notices that the decals are starting to "run" as the car is to fast and, just finished whopping a few Chevy's!  :roflsmiley: :2thumbs:

   When I was putting them on I just guessed at which was they sloped.

I picked up T/A hood and front and rear spoilers 25 years ago to make my car into a T/A clone with a 440 6 pack. I had the hood on for about 5 years then decided that I loved the Rallye hood more. I studied my friends T/A in detail and copied a set of 340 six pack decals.   

As long as it doesn't bother you, great, but it would make me crazy knowing that I have them on the wrong sides.  But that's just me.

Ha. I was reading this  from the beginning thinking that I would suggest black with flat black stripes at the end if you hadn't painted yet, and lo and behold!

Very nice, dude.

Now... all it needs is a red interior and you've got the BEST challenger color combo ever. :-)

Thought I'd share how this one came out.  Took me forever but Dave at Huffman Auto Body helped me get this thing completed and it came out amazing!

Not quite a T/A clone but still pretty rad.  Kept the dream alive and finished it 10 years later
