Vinyl Graphics or Decals For C-5
Hello, I am looking for a company that makes vinyl graphics or decals for c-5's. I have a black 04 coupe that I want to do a patriotic theme in honor of my two sons currently serving in the armed forces. I have seen a few custom flag paint jobs that I like, but I would rather do a vinyl graphic or full wrap. Does anyone have any companies they can recommend?
Thanks!
Thanks!

JACKJ has a vinyl flag on the rear bumper. Check with him. He's an enormously helpful guy. His car is red and he had white stripes and the blue field with stars made up. Hope this helps.

We had the American flag theme put on our C5 and love it! It was created by Lombardo Graphics who also applied it. Dave Lombardo is at LombardoGraphics.com.

This was probably "painted", but saw this in Dallas a couple years ago. Since then I think I have seen posts where something very similar to this was made in vinyl.

Hey check around many sign shops do vinyl. design your own and have some fun with it. You can alway take it off with a hair dryer if you get tired of it. 
Our best to your sons

I went to the www.lombardographics.com and saw this http://blackdevilmagilla.home.comcast.net/ Man that would be awesome across the hood of the car. If your going to do something like this you may as well get right into it. Keep us posted on what you decide.
Sorry the link didn't take you to the pic I was talking about. It's "Auto 16" in the auto art section. Hope you check it out.

Yes, we have body side mouldings, and, yes, the graphics go over them. It's all in the application talent of Dave Lombardo. If you could see the graphics firsthand, you would absolutely swear it was paint, even in the crevices of the vent and bsm!! It's really incredible. Dave is a true artist. By the way, the vinyl is the thickness of a single piece of paper, and it was all one piece.
