Ultimately if you want a true repair, re-tapping and thread repair are going to be the way to go. Like i386 said, a machine shop if you know someone there will also be able to help you develop a new collar to fit your bar and the new threads as well. A case of beer and with an owed favor will get you along ways.... If you are good with cad and can design well.... Click Here They might be able to help you out as well...

I think the guy who does the decals, whose thread I linked to, will not do exact reproduction decals. The font used isn't exactly the same, but close enough to make some people think it's Fender at first glance, due to the type style and gold colour, but it stops at that.
