Where to purchase Thor decals?

I've got a couple decals on my MH that the sun has cracked and faded. I thought that I had saw a thread on where to purchase these decals but I can't find it now.

I'd like to replace the two decals that the sun has faded and cracked. One is on the door and very noticeable.

Does anyone know where I can purchase replacement decals?

MH is a 2017 Thor A.C.E 27.2

Your RV dealer can order them from Thor Motor Coach. I would you call Thor MC Customer Care and get the part numbers first so your dealer doesn't order the wrong part. Thor MC may no longer stock those parts. Be advised that the the decals are very expensive. My insurance company bought one for the rear of my coach and the cost was $125 plus shipping An alternate source would be a auto shop that "wraps car and trucks".

Most sign and letter companies can replicate what you need.

Thor would be the first place to look; followed closely by a quality vinyl graphic shop.
None of them will be cheap; but you will be getting what you pay for.
Good luck, and Happy hunting!

Thanks folks. I sent an email to Thor through their website. I'll see what happens.
If I'm not happy. I'll peel the one on the door off. I doubt anyone would notice if it was missing. But it is an eyesore that is noticed while there.

I've tried calling Thor customer service for decals and other external body parts and were directed to call Total Value RV 1-866-282-4460. I've ordered decals from them, just have your vin number ready. Good luck

Thor parts are expensive. You might think about taking all the decals off, cleaning up the sides and putting some after market decals, lots of dealers out there online that are not identical to the originals.
Also and this is important....check out you tube for painting old decals to see how some users have taken old and cracked, faded decals and after doing some prep work, paint over them and look good....you tube....restoring or repainting rv decals....check these all out before you take the plung

You might try " DiscountedDecals.com, not sure they will do graphics that big but you might give them a try, I had some of the decals on the side of my Mercury outboard that pealed and I was able to get them for half the cost of Mercury.

Decals From Thor

In response to your 2017 with faded decals, I would immediately order the replacements from Thor. Thor only goes back 3 years with their decal stock. I had a 2014 Thor Freedom Elite with the beige overall color scheme and deluxe graphic package not my choice. After being sideswiped by a city bus we could not get replacement decals in the fall of 2019. The problem with my motorhome was Thor went with really gaudy 5 and 6 color multicolor fades (an artist's term rather than degraded), and swoops and swooshes with reflective sparkles in them. I went to a number of decal and art shops in a large city of 600,000 and no one could match the stuff on that rig. They could cut shapes but no one had a clue what to do. It would have been cheaper to strip all the decals from the rig and start over with the latest and greatest. I sold the rig as is and took the insurance payout.

When I bought my 2020 Thor last month I deliberately went with a plain white rig, with the simplest decal package I could find. (Thor Daybreak 22 GO).

So if you want replacements, go to the local Thor dealer and order them immediately before they go NLA (no longer available!)


Happy Camping and Stay Healthy Folks!

I called Thor and got a printout of all the decals and part numbers. I only wanted to replace 5 of the worst with cracks and my local dealer got the prices. Over $1100 plus tax and shipping! I am trying to get a local company to make something.

I'll check into some of the suggestions you folks made. A graphics shop might be the ticket. Or, I'll just peel the one on the door off. It would be less noticeable if it were gone.

Thor Hurricane swoosh decals

My 2006 Thor Hurricane swoosh decals were in very bad shape, I couldn't find any place to buy new ones so I had a graphic designer make a file based on side shots that I gave her. She was able to make a vector file that my local sign shop could use to cut new decals. I youtubed how to apply them and did it myself. I have attached a couple pictures of the result. I would sell copies of the file for $50 to try to recover some of the cost to get them produced.

Hello , I am new here. I too would like to replace some cracked decals as well. Where did you get the 3M decals? Also I have 29.2 2014 and all my leather seats are cracking and flaking? I cleaned with quality leather spray? I read somewhere to contact Villa International to see about getting fixed? Does anyone have their information or other information I can use. I don't really think all my seats should be cracking at this stage?
Thanks,
Rob

I used the Cricut 3M material from Michaels, but found it at Walmart as well. Not sure where to find vinyl for seats. I have much appreciation for the folks at THOR that apply these decals. Not as easy as it looks. Look at about 7:09 min into THOR factory tour below.

Theo MC only maintains a stock of decals for 2 to 3 years. If you need to contact a graphic design place and cut new decals. The people who install window tinting and vehicle wraps can point you the right direction.

Most of the furniture has a 90 day or one year warranty from the importer. Thor MC has never has a component warranty but states to contact the individual component manufacturer or component importer for restitution. Vulla International has its own website <http://www.villainternational.com/>

Seats coverings of pieced leather fail in on or two years after manufacture depending on use and body oils.
