I'd like the cover the existing blue and grey decals on my ibis hd3 exactly as they are but in a burnt red colour (same colour as print on the 2016 fox 34s). I've emailed a few companies with pictures of the frame but have just had 'we can't do that' replies. It seems very straight forward. Does anyone have any recommendations for a graphic company?

to get jobs like this right it's a lot easier with the frame in front of you, I'm not totally familiar with the graphics layout but if they wrap around tubes it's almost impossible to get the profiles right working only from photos

depending where you live you might be better trying a local sign company and leaving it with them, expect it to take a couple of hours to get right so you might end up paying over 100 GBP for a set of decals

I asked a local company and was surprised they declined as it's basically just 3 rectangles.

Or repeatedly tell you over the phone(when they eventually answer) they'll get right onto your Custom decals only to never bother !!! I gave up after a month 🙁

yeah, pretty straight forward, but so much easier with the frame in front of you

if you try and do it off photos you would have to make everything more oversized to stand a chance of covering the original graphics
