check your local airbrush artists (inexpensive), or send it to Troy Lee in Corona for an estimate. (very expensive)

Check out http://www.crazyvinyls.com ... they can make the lettering you want.

As for painting it yourself, try looking here:

http://www.katewerk.com/doit.html

You can do it yourself, or have her (Catherine) do it for you (if she still does airbrushing). I had her do one of my helmets, it turned out great!

Good luck.
