Hi, For decals I would suggest you scroll down to TIPS & TRICKS & also RECOMMENDED DEALERS where you will find a number of websites offering decals, most of these people will make them to your specification,

As to the IBU2 & Radio , The main man is IAN who on this Forum goes under the title of "TANKBEAR" Talk to him, he is very helpful.

I'm not sure what aerials they have on the Chally, but I've had very good luck with simple .5mm styrene rod. I turn it black with a sharpie, drill a hole to sink it into with a micro drill and a pin vise and it seems to do the job quite nicely. Bends well, springs back, and sways a lot like the real thing, plus the major bonus that it's fairly cheap and easy to replace if it does snap off. Hmmm, sounds like an excuse for a video. I'll have to check for aerial threads first, though.
