Plain black decals to cover shiny branding

Hello,
I just purchased a shiny new synapse for daily use. Unfortunely this year's model looks a bit too loud for my tastes, especially the massive white-on-black "CANNONDALE" on the down tube. Mostly I'm hoping make the bike a little less of a target to thieves.
I could use some electrical tape, but ideally I'd like something a bit more sturdy, plain black decals or stickers to cover up the logo and various ott flashes of colour.
Does anyone know where plain stickers might be obtained, or have a recommendation for a good brand of tape?
Many thanks for any help

How about some black Cannondale decals over the 'loud' ones http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/0638-Black-Cannondale-Bicycle-Stickers-Decals-Transfers-/231136909160?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item35d0d55768'Hello to Jason Isaacs'0

Peel off Spray paint. http://www.duplicolor.com/products/cust ... mo3Marquee Not sure if this brand is available in the UK but I have seen several mfrs. producing this stuff lately. Paint your bike to look like it came out of the rubbish bin and peel off when you want to.0

Wrap an inner tube round the frame to hide the logos, durable and cheap. Cut the tube at the valve and cut the valve out then cut along one edge of the tube so it is twice the width. Wrap and secure with insulating tape.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

Buy a cheap chinese carbon bike from ebay and cut it along the centre line. Fit both halves over your frame and secure with helicopter tape.
If you have children, get them to knit a cover using loom bands.0 -

I know this is old but anyways...Scotch Chalkboard Tape works great especially if your bike is matte black.0
