SX/SXi/SXi Pro Graphics or Paint

Hey guys looking for some help. I have a 1998 sxi pro that i stripped down to rebuild and am getting ready to get it back together. Starting to think about paint now and trying to decide whether to go with a plain black or white and trrow a graphic kit on there or possiblby going a little more in depth with the paint job. Most of the graphic kits i have seen are pretty lame like the one that was originally on mine. Let me know what ya guys think.jetski2.jpg

IMAG_0028.jpg My vote goes to single color paint plus vinyl decals. Paint fairly easy, and the decals cost me about $35, for all of them including registration numbers. Unless you are good at paint graphics, the wraps are a bit pricey IMO.

WHat kind of paint did you use on your ski? That thing looks SICK!
It looks lot better in life, it's a Summit racing sour apple green metalic. Total cost to paint one SX was about $200, with all the materials and two spray guns from Harbor Freight. Quart of black for bottom, quart of green for top, quart of reducer, quart of activator, quart of high build up primer, fine filter for the paint, pressure gauge for the compressor to keep constant pressure, two guns(that were like $12 each with coupon) . The guns I threw away after the job. Oh and really good mask!!!!

My bro in law can do some awesome wraps. Just needs the dimensions or a template. I will post up some pics after he does my blaster1.
