The small decals somwhere on the front nose piece by the air vents.

Hi guys,

It's always busy at our shop.
Custom stuff...
Since day one... we never did offer that service and frankly, we just don't have time for it.

Real "Custom" stuff is expensive, the design labor is high.
Almost no retail clients wants to pay the high hourly design fees.
Good designers get paid big hourly $$ at any busy shop.
We've been around for over 10 years and seen it over and over again.
Many shops try custom stuff only to find they need to create a product line to make money and then they no longer offer true one of a kind custom products.
If you find anyone offering "true custom design" cheap take advantage of it before they stop offering it..., Sometimes they might put you on a long waiting list.

Decals... Depending on the requirement for the product where it needs to be applied plastic, steel or other surface...
We use a variety of materials.
Decals are printed and either laminated or coated, depending...
Some decals are designed to be clear coated right into the paint during a re-finish... (steel fuel tanks mostly) Just like when new from the factory.
While other decals for plastic panels etc. are mfg. from high bond materials with thick laminate for dirt abuse application.

We've tried this many times in the past.
But design files come in from many different sources and software from versions old and new.
We usually need to reconfigure them into our print systems and most of the time additional design time is required. (which is booked up most of the time)
We don't use Photoshop or Flexisign or Corel Draw or other generic software that many people use.

I just can't and won't be able to make a solid commitment promise.
But...
The best I can offer is to send me one of your design files...
Send me the largest size one you plan to design.
(Printers need to know what system to use and large format is different than smaller format)
Whatever software or format you use, AI or EPS formats tend to have better import results. Try to have your images emmedded into the file output along with any vector (cut line) data.
Then I'll have a quick look and get back to you.
If there is a reccomendation I can make or if things work out well or if we have to pass on it... either way I'll let you know.

Please PM me or email me private for all issues regarding sending design files to me. Email sales@afegraphics.com

will do, do a lot of work with Illustrator, kinda hard to use photoshop for graphics as they are constrained by resolution limitations
