Help with decals!!!
« on: June 04, 2014, 09:51 PM »
Hi all,

I am new to this group and loving what I am seeing, the retro BMX scene is very much alive! I am looking for some help and advice, I have recently acquired and in the middle of restoring a 1983 Apollo Turbo Mag, I can find very little information about this particular model! I have had no problem sourcing parts for it but for the life of me can't find anywhere that may be able to do replacements decals for the frame. Is there anyone who would be able to help?

Hiya mate and  :welcome to  :radbmxsmilie:

The only person who may be able to help is decal king Del, contact him at www.del-cals.co.uk

Get some pics of your bike up.

Welcome to Rad  :daumenhoch:

Getting decals printed in themselves is no problem, Del on here is the decal master ;)
The tricky part is finding the original graphics to print in the first place if it's an unusual bike

Are there any decals (in any state) let on the bike?
Or do you have any links at all to info on it?
If you're really lucky he may just have done some already, worth a PM or an email to del@del-cals.co.uk

In the meantime get some pics up and someone may have something that can help

Wow that was a quick response! Awesome thank you I will definitely contact him. The decals on my bike were barely recognisable but I have a found a photo of one online so I'm hoping something can be done with that one. I will post pictures shortly:)

Thanks!

not really good pics, some decals you can't see..... so perhaps, if Del's base doesn't cover these yet, you could contact one of them guy in the links, and kindly ask for some pics...
