    That is all I can find.
    They should both be looking backwards, one looking forwards just don't look right to me.
    That's why I added one to the rear only.

    I agree. I can say that I’m impressed with the 392 decal on the fender on the Daytona in that they are not the same decal. They both lean toward the rear of the car

    If we had a Daytona, I would have to remove the vinyl decal and replace it with the metal 392 as on our Scat.

    I like the sticker better for the daytonD. I like the 3d one for the scats. Kinda makes each model different

    No, only the passenger fender bee is looking at the rear, the driver's side looks forward. So same emblem on both sides. They came on the car when I bought it, did not add them.
    Yes it does, but now you have an idea of how hard it is to match it in a powder coat. I talked to one guy that does a lot of powder coating told me, he thinks it was prismatic ( a large power coat maker of colored powder ) attempted to color match green go / sassy grass green and couldn't do it, every time they would spray it out and bake it, it wouldn't come out to match. So that's why I'm just trying to find something very close.

    I hear ya. And getting as close as possible will look good and the green will pop behind the black wheels

    Well, my wife chose the Scat over the Daytona because of the vinyl graphics (she didn't like them)

    New for 2018 I guess. Ours just has the 392 HEMI on the fenders. I added the Bee to the trunk in (place of the R/T)

    I think it’s more of a chally
    Vs charger thing. Chally gets the bee emblem and the charger gets the 392 emblem
