A few months back I picked up a carry over 08 Launch 21v. It has an all black hull (white deck) and the celtic flame that looks really classy and clean! Unfortunately as we all do I now have to add registration numbers and want to try and match the "SUPRA" lettering in the celtic graphic as much as possible. Any sources out there that you all know of where I can find a good match? Just don't want to go with the standard west marine cheap looking lettering. Maybe even some raised lettering similar to the factory decal would be great......any suggestions?

Pics attached right after I picked it up (prior to a complete new Wet Sounds system which is a whole other post) incase you need a closer look at the lettering.

Thanks,

If you search for "font" - you should find them all.

Sweet ride!

I bought my decals from this guy on eBay

http://motors.shop.ebay.com/merchant/3dlettering_W0QQ_nkwZQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZ

It turned out really nice. The letter are high quality and are the "3-d" look. Pretty much the same as the decals that came on the boat. He will also prep and space it for you so you just have to stick them on. I am happy with them.

same ebay guy worked great for me. Posted details on Supra font in other thread. Make sure you are very specific with them or call before placing your order. Supra has several versions of their fonts, and some are italic, some are regular.

I ordered my letters from this company, they have a great selection of colors and hundreds of fonts to choose from.

I purchased my 22ssv from rinkers boat world in Houston, Texas and they had a machine that stamped them out in any color you want. I got mine in grey to match the supra logo looks great
