Opinions for mat colour

[koftis]

Hi everybody,

I have a 99 superjet and i am thinking of chaging the mats on it. The ski is white with black hull and right now the colour of the mat is black. What do you think its the best option for colour? I was thinking of orange but it would look better if the ski was all black. So let me know of any opinion or if you have any pics of it. Here is a pic of the ski. Imagine it without the stickers.


Thanks

Any bright color, then bring some of the same or similar color accents (decals) into the white hull. (1st .02 is free) lol

Honestly, Black and White looks great, I would not use a colored mat. The bright colors will fade and show dirt more.

true, some quicker than others. You would think UV inhibitors would be added to HT compound, by now....

Will you be turfing the rails also?

Maybe something like this?

Or this

also, Unless it is molded, I tend to stay away, for rails, the non molded, the Cut Material is ok.

X2^ I've torn my rails a few times with the cut turf

Thanks guys for the opinions. I will do the rails as well and i was thinking more of the molded diamond style mat.

Your choices are gray and black. Easy peasy.

orange!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta have some color on that bad boy. Get some grips to match

Black molded diamond. Like Kahuna said it wont fade. Seems like the colored stuff only lasts a year. Also it is more aggressive/durable. Wont rip as easy when turfing.

Orange wont fade. It just matures into a peach color

What do you think about purple marble or blue marble???Has anyone put this combination on a ski???

 

[makejetskiinggreatagain]

Not mine. Found this on google. I'm personally not a fan. IMO if you are gonna use color it's gotta be bright and loud. Just my .002.

Thanks for the pick! You helped me a lot in order to avoid cause it looks bad! What do you think if i get the orange diamond with white lanes!?? I think it would look good....

 

[makejetskiinggreatagain]

I like the orange diamond personally. I wish they had a orange with white instead of orange and black though. That would look amazing.

Molded diamond turf has the best durability, and it comes in black, grey, or light grey. Those are the only ones I would use.
