White stars... Where to get?

[Lynn TXP 0369]

Where can I get 1" to 1 1/8" white stars stickers so I can make a Evel Knievel "Viva Kinevel" helmet replica?

Also I'll need to find a source to make the "1" decal on the side of the helmet.

It appears to about 3' to 4", I would have to check my helmet to the size approximation, it would need to be on weather proof viynl similar to what the Fett guys print their chest and should decals on.

Any tips or leads would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Lynn

You might have to go to a painter to have that type of theme done as you would have to have a minumum to have those printed.Take care

One of my buddies has one of the official EK helmets (gold-leafed details et al), I'll see if I can get hold of him for ya so he can measure them.

And yeah, it's an awesome helmet - but he won't let me try it on.

The stars are the white of the helmet.
Do a little searching on Google I'm sure you can order star stickers somewhere.
It doesn't matter what color because you'll use them for masking.
If you had to you could get vinyl star stickers made at a sign shop.
Tape off the V shape, paint the blue and red - viola.

Did a quick Google search for Knievel and came up with this site:
http://www.evel1.com/

They already sell the decals for $5 a piece (4 inches).
Free shipping.

Edit - The 1 decal pic you posted is from that site. Why are you still looking?

I thought about that too, I just thought I would do stickers for the stars.

I've know about the Evel1 site and the 1 decal.
The decal on Evel1 says "window decal" so I assumed it is a static cling type window decal and not a sticker decal.
If I'm wrong, then I got the 1 decal covered, but if not, then I don't know if a static cling decal would work in this case.

Thanks.. That would be great if you could get the star measurments for me, then I'll know if I'm in the ball park for size.

Cool Project.

Post some pics when you are done.

It would be difficult to lay vinyl stars on a helmet like that. Compound curves and all.

Not impossible but tough. Great experience to give it a shot.
