- June 07, 2010, 18:48:24 PMTry Concession Decals on eBay; they will make just about anything in decals for you; if you have no luck, I had a set made up here (Northern B.C.) for about $40.00. I took them in a sample, they made them to my spec. I have also had decals made up for other projects, and have done it entirely through email; show them what you want and they will set it up in their system, send it to you, and back and forth until it is what you want. I'm sure you could do the same in your neck of the woods as well.
Good luck and be sure to show us the finished product.
Regards and such,

- June 07, 2010, 07:53:53 AMI do recall coming across their line of products. Yowza, that's a hit in the pocketbook AND the finish on the headress "feathers" is in GOLD. They look good on your black paint but I think I'm looking for a nickel finish to contrast with the gold bike.
Your input is greatly appreciated, however.

- June 06, 2010, 16:05:18 PMI have a 1999 Drifter 800 in the "gold" finish. I've taken off those factory Vulcan tank emblems and want to put on the Indianhead "Chief" tank decals/emblems to dress it up.
The ones I've seen on Ebay are a wide selection in size / color / style / etc. I picked up a set off Ebay to try because I like the burnt red hue on the Chief's face and it picked up my pinstriping on the bike. The quality is not the greatest, however.
Most of the nice decals are the gold or silver on the Maroon/Black/Red gas tanks. But with the Gold tank the gold emblem wouldn't look right. I'm leaning towards the "silver" finish (not chrome) and maybe pick up the engine case color of dull nickle/silver finish. I came across the 4th photo down on Ebay and am trying to find someone who could do a larger decal from the photo.
Anyone have any suggestions on who might be making a high quality tank decal as described above ? Photos would be a plus.
