Factory Decal Replacement

Hey folks, the font decal on my 2005/3400RL is going to need replacing very soon. It is beginning to peel at the edges despite being totally inside a building when it is not in use. I remember in years past some folks had a topic on the forum and I had thought had these same decals replaced. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

You can purchase replacement graphics from BurlingtonGraphics.com. Dealers can replace graphics at a substantial labor cost. Many of us have done the replacements ourselves. Your graphics are definitely out of any warranty frame so you will probably be making a decision based on cost, available labor, and whether you have the energy to tackle the task yourself.

Some of the decals aren't that expensive, but the shipping is out there. I thought about getting two of the rear graphics to install on the rear fenders on the TV, cost of decals: $15.00, shipping $80.00 guess it's so they don't get damaged in shipping. Still haven't decided if I want to get them or not, think they would look pretty near on the rear fenders of the TV.

There was a large debate on decals. many post. I understand some MOC members brought it up to Keystone at a rally or an RV show. I guess it was taken under consideration but have not heard any more if Keystone will ever help or leave everyone hanging. You would think they would be a little concerned that there big,beautiful 5th wheels are going down the road with peeling/shrinking graphics looking like s___ I guess if people are still buying they won't ever take any action..

I believe that Keystone said at the Fall Rally, that they wanted graphics issues brought to them. You wouldn't have much to loose if you called them to see if they would help you out with new graphics.

Good luck.

O.V. I wish we were closer I have almost a full set of the front graphics for an 05. everything but the two small pcs of mountains. when I ordered mine kristin sent me them and they were short and when she sent the rest it was a hold set with a green bottom so I used them. when I replaced mine I clear coated the cap and it still looks great after a yr. I am in the process of clearing the back cap. I want to post some pics of the front soon. changing them is a task but can be done.

I connected with them at the fall rally and gave a list of the graphics that needed to be replaced. I'm still waiting.

Thanks for all the great information. I guess I will give Keystone a call. I dread the labor involved with all the removal and replacement if I have to do it myself. I have alwasy tried to keep them clean and even applied wax to help protect them. More later. Have a nive day and God Bless!

I contacted Keystone about 6 weeks ago with my graphic problem. The Montana name on the front cap is just staring to peel but I wanted to to find out if Keystone would at least assign me a number to refer to when the problem gets worse.

They asked me to sent pixs (close-ups and full frontal shots)along with the trailer VIN which I did.

I never got any acknowledgment that they even received my pixs. I plan on calling them to see what's happening.

I too have had graphic problems. I have a 2004 and Burlington sent me a complete set for a 2005. 2004 not available. I would use the 2005 on the front cap if I could get the shadow/outline from the old ones off the fiberglass. What can I use make everything look the same before installing the new ones????
