Front cap graphics

Quite some time ago there was a thread about replacing factory front cap graphics.

Somebody mentioned a company that can take one of your own pictures & create a decal for you whatever size you like. Thought I had bookmarked that company but after a big search, no luck.

No luck finding that old thread here either.

As winter decends thoughts drift towards maintenance next year. Almost 10 years on & the front cap graphic is getting dried & flaking despite best efforts at keeping it fresh.

Anyone been down this road before me & had a custom graphic made from a photo?

    Very true. I had a local, near where the trailer is stored, make a couple custom signs some years ago. Unfortunately, can't remember the name of the shop & can't read their sign using Google Earth street level to help get number & call to see it they do what I am after this time.

    Early days yet on this project. Can't decide on whether to use a picture we took of someplace we have been or use one taken here in Bermuda.

    A Bermuda one would be different from the usual mountain or desert scenes that are common on front caps or class A back caps.

    I had new front cap graphics made at Fast Signs. www.fastsigns.com They are located all around the county.
    They did a great job for my Holiday Rambler Aluma-Lite. Cost about $250.00

    A friend told me last week that he took his 5th wheel to a sign shop and they took a picture of it then he took it home and took the old ones off and went back to the shop and they put new ones on for him. Said it cost him $500

    I would think any of those places that does wraps could do it.
    Or you could do like I did and remove everything, have it painted one color with an epoxy paint and never do anything again but wash and wax it.
