You could try this site, it has shark graphics on this page
http://www.military-graphics.com/badges3.html

Cost is minimal, usually about a dollar per inch, get it large enough to wrap around front? At least you could get a look at what it will look like if you paint it....

Hey i have a great idea for your bike, if it chips easily try plasti-dip, they make a clear coating, plasti dip is a rubber coating, so you can peel the clear (or any color they make) off when you dont want it anymore, and since you live in the us it will coast a bout 20$ shipped to do the whole bike

It was a practice paint which turned out pretty good (IMO), but i'll probably do a real job when I get the stuff together to do it right. Plastidip clear sounds like a good idea if its tuff enough, lol, boot scuffs and glove scuffs are like skidmarks on a white tile floor. I'm using plastX lens cleaning stuff to keep it at bay now, but eventually I will repaint it.

If you plan to hand paint it, get One Shot or a similar professional sign paint. They are clear coat safe, your generic hobby shop/discount store Testors is not.

Proper military stenciling is a pain in the neck...
