Hi

I'm trying to get a colour match of tailpiece stripe on a 2002 blue/white gsx.
I'm on my 3rd sample of wrap and it's not quite right, I'm  trying to get a match for the belly pan and I may have spray it instead of wrap, hence paint codes needed.

Any idea anyone

Soooo, had to paint it in the end, and I need to re do the suzuki sticker as it has a few bubbles which I don't like, and add a little pin stripe around the blue.

Try heating the Suzuki decal with a hair dryer gently whilst using a flat edge to "move" the air bubble - that's worked for me in the past to get decals 100% flat with no air bubbles

That aside - looks good!
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

A credit card is perfect for the job.
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

Thank you, I like it, have yet to road test but no vibes at low revs.
