Default Windshield Decal

These 5th Gen Montes do not have many aftermarket goodies as they are not the best looking car around, but I was wondering if there is a place that sells the Monte Carlo windshield decals that fits this Gen car?


Thanks for the help in advance.

Most of the time people have windshield decals custom made for these cars.

There are options for making the exterior stand out too. You can take a look at RKSport, Razzi, and Bodykits.org for a few examples. There's some good stuff that comes on eBay from time to time too. 5th gens have more options then people realize.

Thanks for the information. Never thought about going to the local graphics guys! Will look into that.

Nice 98 Monte you have. Just picked up the same color and year Monte for my 16 year old daughters first ride. Real clean monte, 1 owner with 87,000 miles on it. Reason I was asking if there were any goodies out there so dad can tinker with her car ! Man do I feel old!

I got the RK sport Ground effects on mine and I like the 5th gen look. This was the inspiration of Chevrolet and the late Dale Earnhardt for the design. It was the replacement for the Lumina which was kind of boxy.
This car was supposed to be introduced in 1994 with Nascar but was not approved until 1995. It was however the Pace Car for the first Brickyard 400. Aerodynamics are superb with the front air dam it will drive like its on rails. It actually drafts much better than the rest of them. It should be a rear wheel drive car!
If you de-badge the vehicle it creates a lot of interest at the car shows.
Make it look like the photo I attached and everybody will want to ride in it.

Sounds like you bought a good car, I would LOVE to find another 98-99 Z34 with that kind of mileage. A lot of people over look 5th gens, but I've loved them for 15 years. What's interesting about 5th gen Montes is that if you see something from an early 90's W-Body (Grand Prix, Cutlass, Lumina), it's pretty direct to swap into our cars. For example, I installed rear bucket seats from a Cutlass convertible in my Monte and I get compliments for them all the time (almost more then my Monte's engine). 6th gens do have more options though.

Zipper,


I may have found one for you . Not sure where you live but this one is in Ohio. If it is still on the used car dealers lot, it is a nice looking car with only 61,000 miles on it for 3995.
