yay!! i've successfully managed to stretch my bike budget around lately enough so that a big wish of mine came to pass; a new to me/used fork for the super le tour!! a nice tange champion with a nice sloping crown...like this

ever since i got the super i never liked the original fork and the way it was raked ....having a bit of a kink to an otherwise could-be smooth transition. nothing graceful about it my eyes. even the lowly le tour has a nicer curvature. anyway, the new fork and the frame color don't match and so i'm planning to repaint diy. however, before doing so, i'm taking time to research brands that give best results so it will hopefully look better than just a rattle can job. but, my other consideration is what to do about the decals. i haven't been able to find exact replacements for the past few months, so i'm wondering if there's a good way to feather around the originals so there's not that unsightly edge from taping them off. is it possible? anyone done that?
