Inexpensive NFPA Chevron Kit

S

I am looking to install the NFPA chevron on the back doors of a Chevy Tahoe, for the local Boy Scouts - Anyone know of an inexpensive supplier? I went to a local sign shop and they wanted $390.00 to cover the back doors with two 14"x30" sections.


Help!


I would perfer the lime/yellow and red striping.


Thanks!

They run a 3,000 acre multiple camp reservation that see over 10,000 visitors annually. They essentially a private emergency services unit that responds to medical calls, wildland fires and other issues on the property. The truck is staffed by EMT's 24/7 during the season and ready to respond to a variety of calls on the property. In the past, the medics have also provided mutual aid to the local volunteer fire department when they have not been able to get a medic to respond to a local call.


The Tahoe is a retired chiefs vehicle - and we though we would freshen it up adding proper identifications on the doors, and chevrons on the back. Necessary, No, but trying to help build the professional image.


We are also in the process of offically registering the vehicle with the DMV as an official emergency vehicle.

I purchaced some supplies to do our fire engines at Traffic Safety supply in portland oregon, we just bought 2 rolls of 6 inch wide HIP tape, they were roughly 160.00 per roll, I think there are 150 feet on each roll, more than enough to do a suburban, but I thought the other folks might like the info.


I have this not quite what your after but its 1/2 a chevron..lol

here is a pic of our engine I did the other day it was somewhat tedious since the roll up door on the rear had aluminum slats that were about an inch and a half wide... I kinda wanted to use the florescent lime green, but the other yellow looked better with the rest of the truck,
