hey thanks for the colors guys i think i might try the orange plastic with the blue silver and white ... it sounds pretty sharp.--- the company that is going to make them is a company called cincinati davenol i think. if they are too expensive though i will take them to alocal body shop where i know a guy really well that will do it with pin striping for around $35.00

You might be able to go to a local sign shop that cuts vinyl lettering to cut you graphics.

I ran into the same problem, I couldn't find any one kit that I liked 100%. What I did was found a store that did custom vinyl lettering, and found a couple of tribal designs that I liked. They scanned them, and fit them to the dimensions I gave them. They also had thousands of lettering styles to chose from. I am going to get the "Honda" made again though, maybe in a different style, and a little smaller.

$75 total, and it was done within two days from the time I dropped off the images.
