Laptop Skins: where to find locally?

ok so im looking for someone local to buy a laptop skin from, preferably one i can customize with some big anime titties on it.

basicly does anyone here have a printer that can print onto sheets of sticker material and be waterproof (ink)?

I know Andy (stickerman) at Vader used to do this but i think he only did Black and white.

any ideas?

EDIT: like this but on a laptop lol

well i spoke to Andy and he said it'd be about $40 but as the sticker is around 48 inches long, i can print 3 different designs, (9"X13" for a 15.4" laptop) so like $13 a piece. better than the $24+shipping online sites want. images should be CMYK colors.

im thinking group buy...print anything you want trim to your own size.

well today i bought some removeable sticker sheets (think: giant post it's) from staples. $12 for $15 8"x11" sheets , printable.

As i like changing things up a lot, im gonna experiment with these first. unfortunately i need to use 2 sheets per skin.

Were these sheets paper or something that's water resistant like vinyl?

Seeing as this thread wasn't bumped by me but the wiener above, I'll post too.

I used ZAGG, thanks to Skinnypup for providing me a discount.

I really like your laptop skin Mananetwork, does the light from the apple logo glow through? It would be cool if you can mod that whole logo box to glow.

Ya you can see the apple sign through the white. That would a neat mod but would probably take up some power lol
