Do new Rockshox Forks come with the decals / stickers affixed?

OK, I know I shouldn't have but I just bought a pair of SID Ultimate SL 100mm forks off some random...

I was sent photos... the serial number is in tact, as is the barcoded sticker on the box which has the same serial number on it... but there were no decals or stickers on the forks apart from the small ones at the top of the legs near to the stanchions.

I may be clutching at straws but do forks now come with the decals and stickers applied or are they included in the box so that you can apply them yourself or replace them with ones that match your frame?

    I would expect that the forks should come with the standard decals already applied. Failing that they should be in the box. They are easy to fit.

    But if the forks turn up without decals, have no concerns. Go to Slik Graphics. They are a Swedish company with a very high quality product and a great website. They respond rapidly and their prices are good.

    You can get the "standard" decals, or you can get special finishes. Have a look around the website.

    The Shimano decals are a bit more expensive because they kicked up about Slik Graphics selling "their" graphics and now Slik have to pay a licence fee, which they pass on to you. But you can get Shimano decals in colours and finishes that I believe Shimano don't do.
