Default Car graphics/full race decals

Does anyone know where to get them from and roughly how much they cost for a MK3/4 Escort?
Do they do off the shelf kits and also make them to order. I'm thinking about maybe wrapping my MK3 Escort with details of my website etc on just for the hell of it as the one wings paint is a bit iffy.

How much is he charing mate? I'm not thinking anything too complicated, just something like dark grey bottom half upto the swage line along the door and wings with some writing on and just a few bits here and there to make it look abit race like.

Thing is, its had a bit of paint before, and where the horrible navy pinstripe was along that swage itsbeen used as a masking line by some lazy painter so I need to put another pinstripe on it or thing about doing something abit different.

Mmartin from s2rs.co.uk does this, did my mates 4x4 3door n it looked really good. He used to do my old works ones for us and was miles cheaper than any shop as he's just doing it on the side.
