I took the superfluous throat pad off of my Wilson Platinum CP and I’d like to get a nice West Vest decal to cover up that space and the stitching holes.  Anybody got a line on one?  Or even just the big plain “w” that some of the mlb guys have?

OK, sorry, but why?  Why would you want that ugly huge yellow W?

American Flag? A baseball sticker? Crossed bats? A sky blue star? A “No Step” sticker (off aircraft, or model aircraft)? A Rebel Alliance / Galactic Empire logo sticker? An Autobots / Decepticons sticker? Heck, the “LA” logo is even better than that “W”!

Maybe an F followed by the numeral 3?

You guys don't have to make fun of me.  You could just answer the question!

 (I just happen to actually like the look of the old West Vest decal like from the douglass WV)

I want to say someone had created duplicates of these and were selling them online once upon a time.

Withholding judgment ...

... but why would you want a decal for a product that is not what you have?  It would be like slapping a Porsche hood ornament on my wife’s Caravan.

Dress for the gear you want, not the one you have :D

A serious answer, many here on the forum's dislike Wilson's practices, so don't want to support them, but that's the gear they have.

<——————————— And this guy (me) is their bandleader!

I’ve said it before... It’s not that I would not use Wilson gear. It’s that, if given a choice, I would compare the options based on qualities and characteristics, not on name; and – this is the crucial component – I would not buy it brand-new, full-price retail. 

Wilson gear is good, but it’s primarily comprised of obsolete materials and methodology. The justification for a premium price tag no longer holds merit; all we’re paying for is the name and MLB licensing logo on it.
