Side panel flag

I didn't like the black side panel with 'America' decal some time ago I had the decal removed and the panel re-painted.

Decided the other day I wanted someting on there.
Next door to the office is a company that does vehicle graphics etc. Number plates too!!

I went in and got me some plates for the new car (one's on were cracked and got picked up on the MOT).

Have a look see what you think of this:





I can always remove it and get the panel re-painted if / when I get bored with it.

The plates and pic cost £30. Halfords wanted £27 for plates!!

I have been after a flag for the side of my panel, but I wanted the Union Jack one, with the ends of the flag coming off. They used it on the side pieces on the TT600.

Looks nice though!

The sample I looked at was a Union Jack but I got them to alter it for a George Cross.

Looks really nice actually! I think the shredding effect like what Birchr suggested would give a little more pizzazz if you ever wanted to alter it.

I think the original (Union Jack) flag my design came from would have looked more 'flag waving' because of the red/white/blue all over.

The waving white doesn't quite have the same effect - hence I might get bored with it!!

Cannot remember and that one is only 40k but if you want it, the direct link to it is:

I cannot believe I just found this on eBay:

I also uploaded a larger version:

Yep, that was the one I want Phil, it looks kinda cool and would look brilliant on a Black side panel, So guys where can we get one that we can use on the side panel.

Hi Phil

I think the original one came from Triumph? And was on the TT600, but I would like one a little larger so it looks OK, on the side panel...

Which ones on Ebay is it UK or USA?

If you can get it onto a disc or e-mail it to a half decent sign writing / vehicle graphics company, they'll not only re-size it to exactly what you want, but print it off but stick it on for you.
They usually do a print off for you to OK before proceeding.
I doubt it would cost much.
Usually min order of around a tenner I suppose.

Just check how they'll do it - if it's that cut out vinyl stuff, it'll probably be done with coloured layers, one on top of another.
Not really a problem but it won't be a flat sticker.
(Mine is flat by the way and I don't know how it was done)

Try Yellow Pages, these things are really quite cheap.
