Current Projects chat and miscellany

Looking for some advice with my current project....

...thinking of pushing the boat out and sending it to Argos for paint and getting the forks chromed and the rear triangle up to the point where the rims end....

...what to do with frame decals...

If you can afford Argos and the Chrome, then do it (unless you're concerned about the enviroment). Oh and if it were me I'd have just the drive-side of the rear triangle chromed.

RE decals, I'd say go for the DL ones you like the most. They'll grow on you in the end and I'd prefer to keep things as original as possible.

But its your bike so if there's something else you'd rather go for it... but the Robin Mather ones? on a low pro with chrome bits? Not really the way I'd go. That's quite a lowkey minimalist font isn't it? I think that works better with matt and modern styling.

...but am not sure how I go about getting stickers made up and whether they could cut out the lettering or leave it clear. I assume trying to colour match lettering on a sticker to pearl paint will look gash. I like the Robin Mather style panel/lettering. Any suggestions on designs/ways to handle it/typeface or whether it would be best to leave it plain?

I'm not sure what you're getting at here? When ppl print vinal stickers, they usually also cut them at the same time. So all you have to do is apply and peel. There's a thread about vinal cutting/decals/etc. - search for it.

Also call Argos and chat to them.
