Hey folks, I recently bought a set of 31k decal set from eBay, problem is they don’t fit very well, anybody had any issues, or can anyone point me in the right direction for the correct decals
Cheers

Agree with above. It's not worth trying to fit them yrself as very difficult and stressful. Book a supply and fit with Image Works for low cost, high quality, low stress solution.

They didn't fit very well, or you didn't fit them very well? what went wrong if so  It's a double contoured tank, so assume it's going to be a pain in the ### going to be doing one myself soon (I think) How hard can it be |

Side panels and tail are a piece of p1sh
Tank is a challenge 😖
Done 4 now and still dread them. There is a particular way they have to start fitting them due to the curve going all ways. Buggered if I can remember. You have to stretch and manipulate the decal to fit it. If you start at the wrong point it creases on the other side of the curve as there is too much decal
The bikini fairing decals on early schemes are as bad
As the fairing curves from the rear round to the headlight it changes from concave to convex

Not worth trying. Go to an expert. Image Works don't charge you for fitting. No brainer for me! |

They are a total bitch to do. I've tried putting them on dry...not recommended. Wet is easier but still a right pain. Like the lads say, get someone else to do them!

LOL, take your time and lots of soapy water but you will need a helper to get them right.
If only Imageworks wasnt nigh on 20k kms away :/

The easiest way is don't use them !
Other than the name and model badges that is .
Mask off the panels with fine lining tape and spray the areas needed .
