flat black numbers

Anyone know where I Can get flat black number decals? I seen a bike with gloss black stickers on a flat black background and thought it looked really sharp. I am painting the side panels on my Bird gloss black and thought flat black numbers would look cool. Any ideas?

One option is to buy the stickers and some flat black spray paint. Flat black comes out smooth and professional looking most all of the time. That is one of the best parts about using it.

Keep in mind that flat black can tend to scratch very easily and look bad. I've used enough of it to know.

That is correct. Flat black can scratch much easier because it does not have the clear coating that gloss black comes with. I use quite a bit of both.

Even if the numbers were flat black from the factory? I would imagine someone would make flat black numbers that werent "painted" on.

They may but no one here that has read your post knows of any so I was throwing that out there as a second option to consider.
