Hoffman Taj Build

I just acquired a Hoffman Taj & am after parts and stickerset for the frame.
Its 1 1/8 headtube, what colours did they come in as I'm getting it powder-coated?

Do you know what year Taj it is? - pre mid '97 they came in black, that classic baby blue, chrome and I think (although might be wrong) a fawn colour.
Was it the white one on t'bay? If so that's a post mid '97 - will have a butchers through some of me Rides for colours.
Decal wise - 97's have the old TAJ decals - think there's someone over in the states on the Museum that re-pops them - later it's the Deebo decals (although there's some crossover).
Parts-wise - if you want it 'complete' correct, then you need Hoffman Gack hubs (the later ones if post 97), High Roller rims (the Hoffman Generator rims are the same rim),
Super forks & stem, Hoffman Jumping bars, AD990's front and rear, Hoffman seat post and clamp.

It's a well used white one but from another forum, looks like it has jumping bars and a pair of pitchforks?
Think it's a 96-97

i presume its the one off of bmxforum.co.uk
if so then its a taiwan made taj as it has the hb stamp in the gusset and has the short gusset not the deebo's longer gusset

That's the same one that was on T'bay
I think there's two ways you can go - these are the decals you want for your gen of TAJ (although the one I've got of a similar date has OG TAJ decals but it's frame no. is 0001 - maybe using up the old stickers?):
http://bmxmuseum.com/forsale/21937
If you go the OG route, I can take some pics of mine with a scale so you can get them re-popped (maybe ask Del on here if you want the piccies).
These are the Superforks you need (1 1/8" version for yours):

Ere are - just found a pic (not mine) of your model TAJ:
Seat's not OG, and for full '97 spec you'd need a pair of Hoffman Skidmark tyres
Personally I'd bung some Primo Dirt or V- Monsters on it.

Hi Dan, Taj decal scans would be great.
Any idea how much it would cost for del to do the decals?

You'd have to ask Del fella
I'll take some piccies (as the decals are on my bike) and get them over to you
