anyone know a good supplier of the above?
i'm working to a budget at the moment and would love for my steed to look somewhat less embarassing. I work in a Honda dealer and even at cost +10% (min. staff discount) the decals i would like still come to £80-odd quid before VAT! and they're for the NC30.
Just after (preferably silver) 'Honda' and 'VFR400R' decals, if anyone knows where i can pick some up at a decent price, or if anyone has some lying about?
(seen some on Ebay for less than a tenner but are they any good?)

really? Marks been dead good getting back to me on pm's etc

I would say the Image works customer services were shit, I used the for my steve Hislop TT rep scheme and it took at least 5 phone calls (all un returned) to order what I wanted and even then it took them 4 goes to get it right, well before I gave up and got the painter to paint the number boards. I wont use them again and I know others who have had similar experiances with them.

graphic's were top quality tho and bike looks nice

did you have the problems because you where asking for something to be made differently to what they normally produce,made to you own requirements, and where you can picture and explain in great detail over the phone what you want it to look like , the guy on the other side who doesn't know an nc30 from a nissan micra hasn't a baldy where your coming from. he just selects a file on the computer and presses print and it cuts the vynil ?

i'd go with image works as both my bike and claires look dead on.

I did think about that but I sent about 10 pictures of hizzy's bike, pictures of my own bike and made photoshop pictures of what stickers Id like etc but when the sent things for an rvf tail unit or the wrong colour etc I thought it was a bit out.

but it was the fact every time I called they said ok we will call you back in about an hour or what ever to confirm what every and take your order and never had a single call from them, waited a couple of days then called them again, it really felt like they didnt want my business so wont be giving it to them again

again no complaint with the actual graphic's when they came

to be fair rory you have a point, i never replied, sorry, did you every try me again or give me a call? wish you had before you started posting to people telling them not to use me.

my sign buisness is a side line i am trying to build into a full time job, sometimes because of pressures from working away, trying to work from a wireless broadband i do miss the odd email but i think you will find 99% of my customers are happy with my work and will usually be better value, i know i have let the odd person down but please just keep chasing me, i am not trying to ignore anyone.
