Replacement of placards on exterior

Have 1994 Excella. Would like to replace the “Airstream Classic” placard.
The silver coating and the letters are deteriorating

Placards deteriorating.

One option perhaps you could do. Ours was doing same so fun weekend refinish and repainted all badges around. Trying to keep it original.

My guess is that it is going to be;

A. Hard to find new badging

B. Very hard to change the badging

Like Vantair, we refinished our badging in place. Some of mine required polishing, some paint, and others paint and polish.
