Boat is a 2006 33 express

The blue Grady white logos on the side are showing some age. Part number 10-0088. Looks like after calling many dealers the part is discontinued. They want me to replace with the chrome logos. I like the old ones better. Anyone have or know anyone that has any?

Also the 330 express logos showing some age also. Can't find those either

Thanks in advance

I had partial success here:

Ended up hand painting the faded blue on the gel Grady logos because we couldn't find new. Looks great. My friend in the business helped (READ: did it all) and said the gel logos were most likely silk screened and therefore subject to UV fading and bleeding, and Grady probably ordered enough to cover their stock and moved on to a different product. The letters are not the same size, font, or contour so you can't easily replicate.

Taking off the old stickers is a bear, and if you cannot replace with the exact same logo, you'll most likely end up with some fading and "ghosting " where the old logos sat.... Due to the different font and contours.

Mid week I'm going to post the project.
