Any reputable airbrush artist can do them for you. Go to your local Harley dealership for a referral. Expect to pay between $200-$400 for the set depending on the level of work. Regards,

I ordered mine from Zip last year and finally got them 3 months later. Now I see they no longer list for a ZO6. Give them a call.

I had mine carbon-fiber wrapped at Starcraft (through LPE) and airbrushed the artwork at a local place here.

I don't own a set yet but a forum member turned me on to this site:

I don't know if they are the ones mentioned above.
