In our efforts to give you all a better idea of what exactly it is you're paying for, we've written a new article about how we create custom decals. In this case, we created some special number plates for Jon's Triumph Thruxton, using a photograph and the seat cowl.

The following article can be read in full on the new Creating Custom Decals page.

Customers often call us asking for custom work. We're more than happy to help you out - Mr. Jones from Wisconsin is looking for some obscure Pontiac logo from the 1950s, Ms. Farriss needs a replica logo from a drag bike, Tom needs an 899 Panigale decal - but there are materials we need to make these decals.

Usually we can make designs from a few high-resolution pictures taken with a ruler. A low-res photo with no dimensions on it makes it nearly impossible to figure out what it is we need to make.

Other times can we make designs from scratch, using photos as a guide and working with the customer to reach the product that he or she wants. It's a time-intensive process that involves a lot of trial and error, and can often result in an expensive end result.

Because of this time and cost, we often have customers say "It's just a decal, how come it costs so much?"

The easy answer, of course, being that the vinyl is not the biggest part of the cost.
