I have been working with a fabricator/supplier to try to get the registration numbers available to everybody in the Moomba font in Chrome color. I told several of you privately that I thought this would be forthcoming and end up being a nice deal. I think it is and am happy so far with how things have gone.
The difficulty with the Masque font is that it did not have numbers and I have still never seen a TTF file that has them. But JMVotto was kind enough to share a couple of other file types and they were able to use one of them. So these should be available now and I'll be posting pics of mine as soon as they get here; my order went in today.
The cost is $18.50 for single color chrome and includes both sides. Shipping was about $8 for priority mail so the total was around $26.50. (Two colors or effects are a little more but available.)
The site is: http://www.signspecialist.com/lettering/boatnumbers.html
My contact is James and he has been extremely patient and helpful. I'm sure you can e-mail him at the site and get an order in now but I have asked him for specific instructions about how to place an order. I'll post his instructions as soon as I get them. In the meantime, if you are in a hurry, I think subject "moombachrome" is a good start if you e-mail him. I also think all the other colors will be available as well.
So, I'll post up pics as soon as I receive them-- out of the box and then installed so you know what you are getting. This should be a nice deal and available for everyone that wants them.
EDIT: Pic is now available in post #12 below.
