I'm hoping someone will know who makes generic numbers and letters in the font and size used in the bumper codes on modern US vehicles. I'm going to need to create the bumper codes and other markings for the M923, M977, M978, and M109 kits I have acquired. I know Archer has some generic numbers and letters, but I don't know if they are the correct ones.

I'm open to using both dry transfers and water slide decals. Any help would be much appreciated.

I've used both Archer and Verlinden transfers and prefer the Archer products.

Get sheet AR35001 in black for modern U.S. armor. You get all kinds of good stencils to add to a vehicle, including tire pressure stencils, tool placement stencils, etc.. And yes, they are the right sizes.
