It was a bit on the pricey side. the 'number blocks' were $15 each, the decal was $25 for the first and $2 each for the rest.

Possible source, in my local mall there is a vinal decal shop. Generally designed for household and automotive use. I took in a jpeg file of the graphic I wanted in 3 colors. He quickly scaled it down to the size I wanted and made 6 copies of the decal. Also had him cut a "number bank" (0-9 in ten rows) in three sizes. Great for flat surface, not so great over rivets etc. Have a look in your local phone book for 'automitive decals'.

Who makes them?   Have a couple of Aristocraft Dash 9's here with the same number and want to change them.

Tried Stan Cedarleaf a couple of times but no joy
