cool man nice job

beaverclever02 · 01-13-2012, 07:09 PM

Love them... They look great with the orange bead locks... whats a god way to apply graphics? I have a set coming and want to make sure I get them applied perfect with no bubbles and peeling.

Xtremer-pXL · 01-13-2012, 07:15 PM

I put them on dry and used a heat gun. I ended up having 2 really small bubbles.

chrisroberts916 · 01-13-2012, 07:47 PM

Look Great!

I like wetting a paper towel with widow cleaner and wetting the plastic with that. Then you have a second chance. Then work any bubbles out with a credit card or drivers license. Using heat to conform to the contours. The vinyl I print on is whats called air release and the sticky side has lines in it to let you push the air out. That is why you should always work from the center out.

Yeah. Looks really good man.

How thick are the graphics?

Xtremer-pXL · 01-13-2012, 08:07 PM

I don't know the mil but they were little thicker than regular sign vinyl.
Seemed alot stronger than normal sign vinyl.

woodsrider129 · 01-27-2012, 05:35 PM

Graphics look really good man. Just curious what exactly your problems were because of the Maier plastics. Im hoping to get a set someday and have Maier fenders as well.

Xtremer-pXL · 01-27-2012, 05:50 PM

The side/tank decals fit great.

the rear fenders really honestly looked like they were HALF they size they needed to be. the decals were to small.

The front fender decals looked out of place. like the decals were to large for the race cut plastic...So I stuck the front fender decals on the Rear Fenders. Walla!

I also cut up the rear fender decals and used the product decals on the lower part of my rear fenders.

Won't be long.... I'll have mine back together with my new plastics and new graphics on!
