Default Decal changing

Not sure how big of a pain this would be, but I am thinking about changing the decal design on my bike. Tapeworks about the best to go with?

After some internet searching, looks like tapeworks is the way to go.

Tapeworks is good if you want over lays. There is a tint shop locally here that can make decals too for about half the price. Check in your area too.

+1. For a previous bike I found a local decal shop that did the decals on police cars and work trucks. Stopped there and one of the younger guys wanted to try designing something for the bike. He gave me a couple designs and after choosing one all I paid for were the materials.

He even had to redo one side as the piece didn't lay out smoothly on the bike. All and all it came out really nice.
