Otherwise, make sure you take a good series of photos and then a vinyl cutter can do it. If your chasing perfection, goo to include a tape measure in the photo so they can read off the sizes
There's lots of them around now, most crash shops shop know one, or places like revolution race gear and
www.autosportpa.com.au have connections, last try the good old yellowpages.

What about just doing what Callumn suggests but later on simply paint them on?

Or more to the point - why would you want the bloody things.

I like some decals but personally they look like something from starwars.....Millenium falcon perhaps..... Anyhoo - my suggestion is to go and see a decalist. There are tonnes of people that do that - they guys that print the stickers at the markets etc do this sort of stuff and they generally use quality vinyl too. Just be prepared to spend the $$.
and may the force be with you (or your mate)

The orange "turbo" down the side and a thin black pin stripe is all you need. Sutle, Less is more and so forth....
