G'Day Lizard,
Perspex (Acrylic plastic) to the colour of your choice, any sign write can do the message, just presses on and you lift the top protective sheet away.
Regards,
Mike.

Which ones are you talking about as some of the signs are official types and have to be purchased at Truck suppliers.

EG the "Do not overtake turning vehicle" has to be the approved version.


The ones on bonnets with weird names are custom made.

As Mike said then.

Only thing is the perspex deteriorates in sunlight and becomes brittle so a stone may break it.

Also in some States anything above the bonnet line may attract attention from the authorities.

Gday,,
Not sure if your talking about sun visors (above the window), Bug/Stone deflectors ( on the end of your bonnet & below the window)?
But any truck parts shop should be able to help.Link
Are you putting it on 4WD or truck and do you want it for a sign, looks or as a bug deflector?
Its probably mor practical to get a bonnet protector and put a sticker on it if its just for a personalised sign.

Cheers

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Cheers Dave.
