im a big fan of hand painted signs with airbrush touches.
not a fan of vinyl, i feel that its low quality. and dont get me wrong vinyl for both sides with dot numbers etc etc is 100$ while painted is 350-400+
but when you see a nice painted on sign it looks nice compared to the majority of vinyls now adays.

PM Hardcorez28. If he doesn't do it, he'll know someone who does. He's not north jersey, but you're talking about a dying art.

Know any guys that are into dirt track racing? There are still a handful of old-school guys that have their cars hand painted and they would be able to hook you up.

Looks great! I agree much better then any vinyl that anybody could have offered. If you don't mind me asking, what is a ballpark price for something like this? My father years ago used to have the lettering painted on his work trucks and I've been curious what it costs now days for my trucks.

Well it really depends on who you use. I went thought an individual that does the work at your shop. (Doesn't own a shop) for both doors, gvw and dot number on both sides( did it on dump) number of truck on both sides of hood and company name on top of the dump body ran me 425.
I had said in a previous post that vinyl would of been 3-4 times less, which is true and all that needed. But this right here is gorgeous, can't keep my eyes off of it.

Price really ranges on how much you want could be alot less could be more with so,e pinstriping
Idk if I'm allowed to put up the contact info of who did it so ill wait until a mod sees this
