I had a vinyl shop make “decals” for me and they were placed on lexan with a coat of paint behind them. If I can find it, I’ll try to scan the decal and get it to you. It will probably take me a few days to dig it up though.

Junkyard.......Somebody stole it right off the truck? Crazy
My wifes nightmare.....How did the decal idea work? Do you have a picture of it on truck by chance?
Forgot to mention we were thinking the red version. I'm wondering if we put sticker on red lexan then clear coated over that?

I haven’t been able to remember where the extra decals I had made are, but still looking. He used chrome vinyl and cut them out backwards so you can stick them to the Lexan. Then a coat of black paint over the backside and you have a new insert. Mine have been done for probably 8 years and I’m still very pleased with how they came out.

I may have not been real clear in the last post. The decal will be on the backside of the Lexan also, then paint over the decal on the backside so the outside will be plain Lexan.

Looks nice. Let me know what you find.
Seems easy enough to put together.

I finally found what I was looking for but had forgotten I had made another set of inserts. Thought I still had just the “stickers”. If you find a good vinyl person they should be able to duplicate these.

Those 2 black Ranger emblems, our those stock oem?
I've seen two different styles. The first is like these and the other is without the white "circle" around the Ranger.
Trying to figure out which is stock.

All of the photos are of recreated inserts. They were copied from the broken one that came on my truck and it had the outline. There was a reproduction set of inserts in the truck but they were red and chrome with the outline as well. I traded them many years ago to Flashback’s so no I don’t still have them. The lettering and circle are actually chrome, sorry it looks white in the photo.
