Hey People Im wondering what decals i should get for my fzr? If anyone has any ideas would greatly appreciate it. Also I dont even know where to go to get decals so help with that would be good to.
At least look here. I know that they are a US company, but they may have what you are looking for. Nice looking bike, by the way.
do somethin real different go to autobarn and get some of those vynils that they plaster all over their cars on the fast and the furious!
thanks for your help, really appreciate it that tapework site is cool although i will have to investigate into it further. Cheers
whats the approximate cost of getting a full paintjob ? I think my bike is due for one once i get me some side fairings. cheers PS: very nice job
i was quoted around $400 for a class 1 2 pac paint job by freind but it would be easier to paint it youself if your money concios you could get away with it for about $150 asuming that you dont have primer or thiners.
a dude i know, worked on one of my cars, has a paint booth and all said " coupla hundred, not more then that" but would need to see all parts that need painting in order to give exact price. This i guess is dependant on paint type and colour ?? cannary Yellow <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->)
My dad can paint bikes he use to bild custom Haleys <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_redface.gif" alt="" title="Embarassed" /><!-- s -->
the quote i got incuded plastic welding, some fibreglass and plastic primer so it was a good deal but i didnt have 400 bucks
a very good deal by the sound of things, my problem is, do i really want to invest much on a bike that i will be selling in 8-10 months ?? i dont think id get back the money i would invest..
thats another problem i had but then i thaught the resale value would probably be more than what u paid for the paint job.
yeah, but.. when u add purchase price + investment into bike i dont think ud get it back when selling the bike. Although its the pleasure u get when riding a bike u like that just might b worth it
soory ill refrase that depending on the conditin of the bike eg (my bike) the resale value would increase!
paintjob The only reason mine looks so good is that I bought it of a guy who is a spray painter for a living. He said he based my bike colour on the ducatti's he gets coming to his work. If you guys are interested I can see if i can hook you up with him to paint your bikes? I still keep in contact with him which is just as well as recently i had a friend riding it and he dropped my bike. luckly not to bad but still annoying enough to get it fixed.
i've got an FZR250 that is the same colour red as the one in the picture, it's got the virgin mobile racing replica stickers on it.. thats how it came when i bought it 6 weeks ago.
im sure by now you've decide on some decals for your bike but for anyone in the future id suggest designing some custom ones you can just draw what you want or for lettering search fonts on the net for what you want then just take it in to snap printing or somewhere like that (any signwriter) tell them the size and they'll cut the vinyls id say 50bucks max and its custom on the paint jobs just wondering, i really like koma's silver 1000 so i was thinking maybe going silver and red i was going to do it myself but i've been told silver is quite a bit more difficult than other colours anyone know if this is true?
Spray painting silver is not so bad but preferably you do ALL the bike in one session to ensure a good colour match.
