Ask them, they make anything to order.

Brilliant to be honest. I provided them with very high res images that I got online. If you can give them the scripting of the image, they can import into the their plotter and get it perfect.

The only thing I will say about vinyl graphics is that they are approx 0.5mm thick, so they are a tiny bit raised. It can't be helped, it would be very hard, if not impossible and very costly to airbrush very detailed logos, so I think it's a sacrafice that I can accept. A few coats of clear helps to blend and give it a smooth finish.

cool!!
I emailed Jbot about enlarging a set of 1/25 decals for me
and to make me 3 sets of them.. he asked me for a pic of the decals
so i sent him a real nice pic with the size of the decal page
and that i could send the 1/25 decals for the job. Next email back
is he charges $20 per hr and would have to redraw all the art work
for a grand total of $300.00 and 3 sets of decals
