Where can I get 2007 MLS lettering for a Chicago Fire home jersey?

I was given a 2007 Chicago Fire, home, replica jersey as a gift. Many places that still have the lettering refuse to sell me the MLS lettering without buying it already on a jersey. Many places also refuse to customize it due to the fact that it's not an official jersey. The lettering has changed for the 2008 season so it's getting hard to find. I'm willing to make my own if I know the font.

I imagine the Lettering is as trademarked as the logos, color schemes etc--replicating any part of the jersey without permission could get a shop in trouble. You'll have to homegrow an answer, i think.

Where are you located? If you're in Chicago, you might try Chicago Soccer on Western. They seem pretty cool about adding numbers and letters and such.

Markovitch - Yeah, I know I'd have to make my own. Know the font?

TheWiteSkull - I'm located in the south. I've called Chicago Soccer and they are out. Chicago Soccer is a great business with good people.
