    i'm so over tribal graphics

    every second boat has some form of tribal graphic on it now, even all of the lower end locally made ones (poorly done too). in fact i'm even over the malibu graphics.

    i think that it is possible to change the 06 air graphic without damaging the gelcoat. what do you think?

    RE: i

    Is that photoshopped? If not, your boat looks awesome. This is nice b/c last year if you took off part of the graphic, it looks "off." Now, you're shot looks like it came that way from the factory. It fits and takes some of the gaudyness (sp? word?) away from the decal... I like it :grin:

      I like that.

      I'm sure something can be done. Just depends on how much you wanna spend.

        I think the only real way to do that would be to buy new stickers and cut them out and then put them on the boat, the only alternative is would involve cutting the sticker off whilst it's on the boat, and that could damage the gelcoat...

        I love the colors btw!
        How about \"Chales\"?

          taking stickers off is easy----

          get an eraser wheel for a drill or a heat gun-----

          i did my malibu and will be doing my san soon---i don't like the tribal either

          gelcoat is hard to hurt

            I agree and am thinking of removing my decal off my 04. Hope it's not too late.

                The image is photoshopped. i was planning to just cut off the tribal part. I'm pretty confident i can do that without damaging the gel.

                don't want to buy new stickers cos i imagine that they would be expensive. plus, i hate the 05 graphic and i'm not sure about the standard one either

                    I would cutoff the bars sticking out of each side as well. Then it would look like an updated version of the original '00-'03 "AIR" graphic.

                            I think the 210's look good with out the tribal and without the graphic. I did it to a 211 to see what it would look like without the tribal and I think it looks a little plain. What do you guys think?

                              Got wake,
                              Trying to pass that picture as an innocent post just won’t fly. This is a family site and that picture may look like a group of friends having a good time on the lake I think if you look closer you will see how sinister it really is. First the girls in the front are clearly holding hands (Girl on Girl) the two guys in the back are sitting way to close (Guy on Guy) and the way the driver is holding that throttle is totally obscene. NSV your picture is no better, what’s with the girl licking the tower (girl on Boat) and I don’t even want to know what the two guys are doing with the front of the boat(Guy on Boat on Guy). I only hope that my 9 year old daughter does not wander on to this site somehow while surfing on Disney.com our downloading the new Britney Spears song (what a wholesome Girl). You people should be ashamed of yourselves.
