Anti-skid decals for NP or GN F units

Does anyone make these Anti-Skid decals for the noses of NP and GN f units? I need a bunch for F-units and SD45's.

Have you considered using paint instead of Decals? You can get a better color match that way.

They come on the NP F unit decal sheet.  I don't think they are available separately.  They could easily be made with black or grey decal stripes but it would be a bid tedious applying them.  http://www.microscale.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=60-530&Store_Code=MD&search=northern+pacific&offset=&filter_cat=&PowerSearch_Begin_Only=&sort=&range_low=&range_high=

Assuming you have some skill with the computer, black anti skid strips would be a relatively easy project for the home-printed decal sheets from MicroMark, etc. (whether laser or inkjet).

I have those F-unit decals but no where near enough. Might try to find someone to do the art work to have some made up.
