hi guys go my original, NOS team raleigh aero plate through today, but it has mesh for clip on numbers
i was thinking of fabricating a piece of clear plastic to fit in in front of the mesh to alloy me to apply decals such as the oakley rub ons i got from wolfy.
any ideas of a cheap material to use and where from,
just need a bit of clear plastic as thin as possible and about the size of a4 paper thats relatively easy to cut with a jigsaw.
cheers
dave.

try a model shop or an art n craft shop ,or you could have numbers laminated in large sheet then cut to size
