Default BMX Experts. - Haro frame questions.

I've had this Haro frame in my shed for about 3 years. a mate pulled it out of a skip along with a mongoose full bmx and both were hand painted black (blatantly robbed) but i swapped him an old bmx i had for it cos i wanted a project to build up for a summer hack but now i've got round to it again i'm gettng it blasted and powder coated soon and want a sticker set for it, but i'd like the right one. Does anyone know what frame it is, and where i can get a sticker set for it? it was factory red but i started stripping it years ago and red leaded it to protect the metal abit. (ignore the handlebars they're not haro ones just cheapo rubbish) the ones that came on it looked similar to this












I know its vague but cheers for any information, Joe.

Ah Brilliant, Thanks mate. now i can look for the sticker set

and it IS going matisse blue, same as my orion lol

white wheels and forks, pink grips nothing too major of a spec, its just something i'm throwing together mostly of spare parts to go jumping kerbs and rails on etc, remembering my youth and probably hurting myself more than i used to

It had industrial size rear dropouts.
