Opinions on 05 SN 196 conversion to retro hull graphics

[chief351]

Here is my new boat :

It has the "swoosh" style graphics which I don't mind but I much prefer the look of this: (which looks like my 90 SN)

I have successfully stripped most of the stickers off, such as the PCM Vortec emblem, OH registration, private lake stickers and have polished the hull back to "like new" condition. This has been relatively easy.

My concern is removing the large "swoosh". This is a much larger decal to remove than the others. Will it come off as easy as the smaller ones? Same process just more time consuming?

Last concern is the raised "SKI 196 Limited" stickers on both starboard/port sides near the rear. Hopefully these can be removed easily as well.

Last question, which one of these decals should I be using?

or the "silver cloud"

If there is a black 2002-05 SN196 that has gone retro then please post a pic!

Thanks for any help

use part 3304...

The big graphics will come off, just use a hair dryer to heat them up first, as it'll make it much easier. The retro vinyl will look sweet on your boat!
