MSquad sells them, but they are pretty steep price-wise.

Copcamaro & I have a dealer in Jefferson City, Mo. who made ours, has the art work and is half the price of M Squad. They can also have them cut the day of order and shipped that day. None of the crap of M Squad. Your welcome to look at pictures of my FHP 0381 and CopCamaros Car for the decals. They can easily cut your roof decals for you. Im not a fan of M-Squad and think they have crappy Florida Decals.

Sorry to be late on this one and rehash this as I feel this is not an accurate assessment of M-Squad. I've not had any issue with M-Squad decals for all my squad restorations. I've actually seen the FHP decals that M-Squad makes and there seems to be no issue as they are derived from the originals. I have to wonder if the decals that you refer to are the ones that are from other copies of M-Squad decals made in Missouri?

I've never heard complaints about the quality from MSquad...only the prices. I did some repop FHP decals awhile back of half-way decent quality. I think they were $50 a set. No comparison to screen-printed originals, but decent nonetheless.

Wink as a customer of M-Squad

No I speak as a very dissatisfied customer. M-Squad took me for $350.00 bucks three years ago, gave me a crappy set of magnetic FHP decals that did not fit. Would not return calls, would not answer emails etc etc etc. As I showed the car at shows, many on this site & org saw those crappy decals and gave very negative comments. I knew nothing of M-Squad and took the advise from members who had used them for their projects.

It took the guy three months after having my money, only call I ever got why it took so long was that his wife had a child. I had to threaten to either make the decals or send my money back.

Those decals have now been sold to another member & I am very happy with the quality of what the sign company did in Jeff City, Mo for $ 125.00 total.

Again you are the consumer, do as you wish.....Sam Walton said it best...The consumer will hire or fire you simply by spending your money elsewhere.

You paid $350??? WOW! I didn't pay that much for the last set of original FHP decals that I bought.

Definitely pricey.

I agree that is a pretty good lick for some decals. Especially since they already have the artwork in place to do it.

I have someone working on building a set of Michigan State Police decals for my 89 and 92. I could use the ones from M-Squad which I have seen and they look pretty good, but the ones they sell are not the correct decal for my older cars. I am hoping to get a couple of sets that are closer to the ones that were on my cars in service.

My FHP decals are the repops Mike had made. They are not exact, but they are acceptable (to me anyway).

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with them. I can't say that I've ever had a bad experience with M-Squad and I've got three different vehicles that I've done so far with excellent success.

I'll have to take it up with M-Squad about this though as it is troubling to hear this occurring. Thanks for the input.

I guess I got the real "rest of the story" now "Sam". I fully understand the situation now and will continue the use of M-Squad decals and will stand by their quality. Thanks.
