Custom/Hybrid Painting.... What Colors?!

[Foximus]

I saw you ski this past week-end if you do paint it s basic color put the stock graphics
back on it... Or something close sonce it's sooo close to stock..:cool2:

haha pat. Actually i like the idea of stock looking paint and graphics... Everyone will think I brought a 550 to the party.... Till I start it.


Call it the sj550 ss. SS being either Slightly Stock, or Sleeper Screamer

O'yea... Hell yea that is what i would call it.. sj550 ss.. with stock colors and graphics :buttkick:

So now where do I get stock'ish graphics.


Maybe replace Kawasaki with Yamasaki, but keep the standard font, so it would be real easy to miss.

use the exoticsigns.com website to see what you think will look best

Day-glo green and carbon or grey stickers with the stock theme.

Oh man boris, you hit the nail on the head. Those are my absolute most favorite scheme ever... that and the same thing yamaha did with the squarenose superjet. The yellow with the black blocks down the side. Sooo sexy.

If you invert the colors it would still look stock to your average pi$$ed off fish head while looking different at the same time.

I havent seen any 90 model squares with my graphics. Its pretty sexy.

I had one of those as well as my friend, called them the Crayola twins.
Sadly, both are flat black right now.

I think there's some instant cool factor in keeping the stock graphics or close to them on older skis.

I come close to ripping off the graphics when I bought it, im proud I didnt. I want to seal my hood up but i dont wanna mess the stock graphics up. May just buy another cheap hood and keep my stocker.

You can close off the air intakes and not damage the stock paint.
After you cut out the louvers tape up the holes and glass from the inside (must remove the liner first).

Well the carbon is done... Got the heaters going full blast, and time to sand like crazy in the morning.

Good point, seems like that crossed my mind at one time. I hate the stock hood. Thats what I'll do when I get to it.

Sorry about thread jacking mr fox. My little brain flutters around like a drunk butterfly.

Well, don't be bashful.

Where are the pictures ?

 

[Foximus]

Ha! Nosir. This time I'm not posting any pictures till its done, painted, and bolted back together. Surprise time.


As for threadjacking... I cant be one to talk. Im about as bad as you can get at that...
