Decal Help?

I would like to find a "order online, reversable decal" custom decal company. I found a great decal place, but they do not make their decals in mirror so I can put them on the inside of the lexan shell before painting. I'm just looking for a simple one line decal for each side that I can put on the inside.

Yes, I have used google. I've looked over at least 30 sites with no joy. Was hoping someone might have a source.

Thank you!

No, was just looking for one color. The decals that I got for my daughter's car that I put on the outer part of the shell, the letters stuck to the shell, with no backing. Man, I really don't know how to explain it. Just looking for black, so I can peel the backing, and just the letters show, but I can put it on the inside of the shell and paint over it, and it will read correctly on the outside.

I'm such a n00b when it comes to somethings (all things)....

maybe talk to mikedealer about what it is your looking for. i'm guessing you want black letters........ i think? he should be able to make you a reverse vinyl mask. put the letters where you want them, paint the body, remove the letters, and spray them black. or whatever color you want.

This is a great idea, however, I am horrible with the paint so far. I think the letters would be to small, and I would end up f'ing it all up peeling the masking...

I would try hunting down this decal makin set that testors puts out http://www.testors.com/product/0/9198/_/Custom_Decal_System .. its basically like a temporary tattoo that you can print out.. put what ever graphics/logos on there print it out.. and put on the inside of the body with a damp rag. Let it dry and paint over it! just be sure that you have the image the right way before you print it..

I can plot most 1-color logos for you if they aren't too small, if you send me what you are looking for (a photo would be a big help), I can probably cut whatever you need in reverse.
