decals are a hard issue.. getting really good ones that is.

that first one is a 1920s era ducati logo.  I love that, I had it on my truck.

many of the vinyl type are crap.  nate can explain why.  the laminated type are usually much superior for painting and clearcoating.

I hate vinyl...actually I hate decals.

I usually make a mask and spray logos.

A good deal can be viewed two ways.

One would be a low price, while the other would be a good value.

What are you looking for? There are lots of shops that will do it for cheap. You often get what you pay for.

I just purchased some of the 80's logos in refelective yellow from www.decal-orations.com (http://).  I got two in the same size that's currently on the tank, and 4 more smaller ones so I can deck out my helmets.  Order went through on 4/24... still don't have my damn stickers... so pissed.  These things better be solid gold.
