Default Waving flag graphics, where to get?

I want the ones that look like ghost graphics almost, they aren't very visable. Not the ones that arc across the body lines and are in two pieces, but this is like one solid one that goes from wheel opening to wheel opening under the middle body-strip line. Thanks. BTW, I have a dark gray 04, I want silver graphics.

the best way to do it is to go to a vinyl decal shop and get them done there, then they're the way you want them and they're not too much money that way either

Thanks for the responses. I was just curious if they were stock at all. They kinda looked like they would be.

I had mine custom done. I designed the hood graphic in Adobe Illustrator and had a shop integrate the sides to go with the hood.

Hello `Amy, you did an awesome job using Adobe Illustrator for your personal design. You gave your Monte, your personal touch. Can you share
what the shop charged you, to make your graphic's ?
Did he maintain the template ?
How many trophy's have you won with your Awsome SS ?
I know you won the June 2006 Monte of the Month.
Please post more pic's : )
Thanks, `Space

[align=center][/align][align=center][:-]Click on Link below [:-][/align][align=center]http://www.speedgraphics.net/new-colors-main.htm[/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]The vinyl in all of our various product lines is of the highest quality available. The manufacturer ratings are provided for informational purposes only and do not imply a warranty by SpeedGraphics.
Creative Ideas For Graphics
To get the creative juices flowing, I'll demonstrate how most of the designs on this site can be used in many ways to enhance the look of your vehicle. Learn what the design pros know!
First, let's look at a couple of design elements discussed in other areas of the site. Color can really enhance your ride and make it look fantastic. I won't go into detail here, but have a look at the Color Harmony section for ideas. You'll be surprised at what "works." After that, examine the Colors we carry. You'll find a lot of complimentary colors and specialty colors that are cutting edge. Also, take a look at Special Effects. It examines the different styles you can apply to a graphic, such as Outline and Shadow. With all of these things in mind, let's get creative and look at some different ways to use graphics.
The most common "template" used by many auto enthusiasts on the sides of their car, is to include manufacturers logo's (Rollcall) and a graphic element.

This is a red graphic applied at an angle to conform with the cars natural lines. A common place to feature aftermarket enhancements is directly after the front wheel well It's a common theme, but there's a reason for that- it looks great!
The next design explores a different look, but also helps you think out of the box when browsing the products. Side Kit Graphic S303 looks like this when shopping.:
However, this image and ALL of the others can be rotated, rearranged and special ordered. Here's what this image looks like in Blue with an Orange outline. Note the alternative placement of aftermarket logos.
Don't be afraid to manipulate a graphic from it's original form and to order multiples of the same graphic. For example, let's assume you ordered 3 Side Kit S079's in three different sizes and colors. Graphic S079 looks like this in the shopping cart:[center][IMG]http://www.sp

Hey BD, I think i know what your talking about. My 04 SS has this . Check out my car in the photo gallery. You can see it somewhat in a couple photo's. But like you said it's not really all that visable. Some of my friends didn't even notice till i pointed it out to them. I'm not sure if it was a factory thing or not,i bought the car used and the graghics were already on it. Sorry i could not help you out. Good Luck.
