The decals show up on Ebay with some regularity.

Also, you've probably got a local graphics/decal company that can reproduce them for you.

I have a 1983 Klein Performance. I bought it as a frame back and built it up. It has that press on decals that are getting a little ratty, too. I called Trek and asked about replacement decals. Trek doesn't have them and they have no idea where to find them. We're talking ZERO support. Nice people, but they don't know anything about Kleins.

The earlier Kleins have different decals that the newer Kleins. I've seen reporductions of the newer decals, but I've never seen the older decals anywhere. So I guess when the decals get so bad I can't stand it, I'll just remove them.
