I've got to put some new number decals on my green/tan Lund and can't find any colors other than white or black. I bought boat used and it had tan numbers on it, matching my boat perfectly.

Can I paint the stick-on numbers to Lund tan? I've read Lund uses PPG paint codes--how does this work so I can find the matching colors? Or better yet, does anyone know of a source for colored stick-on number decals? Thanks!!

All I ever do is go to your local sign and awning store or a Auto pinstriping store. They usually have a machine similar to a printer which cuts vinyl with an adhesive back. It's available in almost any shade or color. Also you can get it done in any style of writting.

Good luck and Good Fishin'

A lot of local sign shops have the equipment to create vinyl numbers that work great. They should have vinyl in colors other than black and white.
Had mine done this way but used black, cost 20 for both sides and last forever.

I have Letter Tech numbers on my green/tan Lund and the tan matches almost perfectly. The numbers come mounted on a tape that holds them in place and then peels off after install. This keeps your spacing even and makes it easier to keep them in line. Pat K

Check the local regulations before you get any special style letters. In SD they let everyone know that script lettering is not allowed. Some folks have had to remove custom lettering for which they paid good money.

I have the Falls Custom Lettering numbers on my Red 1999 PRO-V, they look GREAT!!!!!!!

All they need to know is what brand & color and they'll make you a great looking set that matches your contrasting color (Sand Beige fading to Green)
