Custom Decals on a Frame Respray

I’m toying with the idea of getting a new Orange P7 frame and getting it sprayed up in an homage to my ‘93 Prestige from back in the day and getting forks sprayed to replicate RS Mag-21s.

Getting the frame and forks sprayed aren’t in themselves a major challenge but I’d like them to be decalled up in the style, fonts, etc of the originals.

Who is out there that can do the custom decalling as well as the resprays? I don’t imagine it would come particularly cheap but has anyone done something similar? What was the ballpark?

The two frames I’ve had resprayed, the logos were painted on, by JMJ designs, he can do decals too though.

Resprays start from about £500, though that was for carbon frames.

Retrodecals is Gil_M on Retrobike and has a huge library of all the decals you'll need. He's happy to customise them too so say do the P7 decal in Prestige font.

Us retro fans have been using his services for years, he knows his stuff. Nice bloke too, ridden with him a few times.

Ooey Custom paint in Camberley paints all the decals as part of the overall paint job.

Just gave high res pdfs on logos etc for them to use for making masks etc

Just use the link in the first post mate, Gil is Retrodecals. You'll probably get a quicker response on there rather than retrobike.
