Thumbs up

I was thinking of the "Firehawk" script also. Just need a decal that will fit.
I wonder if the firehawk decal that goes under the taillight would fit?

Ok I got a question. Instead of painting can i use like black paper and cut in the middle of the paper what i want the thing to look like. Then just place it in there nice and tite? Is it going to work out. Im thinking it will just show that picture that i cut out in the middle of the paper.

if someone can send me a nice high res image of the firehawk script that is nice and clean I can most likely get it made. By a clean image I mean, not blury, no fine particles, ect. I'll see if I can find one tho too.
