If you live anywhere near a college town put up a craigslist ad. Screen printing tends to be costly enough that commercial printers, and students with access to school gear tend to be the main practitioners.

Its much cheaper that having screen printing done or having vinyl letters cut. I had a vinyl print done for the back window of my truck. To have the letters cut and everything was around $300 i had the same printed version done for $150. 2 years later it still looks like the day i put it on with no fading Canon T1i
