    Wow, that's pretty cool!! Someone actually found one. I still don't get the name "The Stabber" reminds me of OJ.

    Take lots of digital photos of the sticker so you can reproduce it later

    Welcome to the board!

    I have a MAJOR point of advice for you: If you have someone that can cut vinyl graphics, either take the fender of the car to them or get them to come there and see if they can reproduce it before doing ANYTHING to it! Pictures are good, but sometimes they need to see the actual sticker / decal to do it correctly. They may even be able to remove the old one safely and scan it for even better accuracy.

    I'd even be tempted to buy new fenders to put on the car and keep the old ones just like they are.

    Definitely a NICE find!!!
