it looks great from a distance, but when you get closer you can see folds and seems and other mishaps. i am thinking about going to my local vinyl shop and re do the entire thing.

its a trackbike and we really don't care for perfection. It'll just get fucked up if you perfect it.
that is true, but that vinyl shop is hooking me up with a sponsor.

Yea really doesn't look too bad from far......like someone else said, the reason you buy track skinz is because you know you're going down sometime. But then again if you have a sponsor (getting a free hook up is nice) then go for it.

Hey Binx, did you use a torch like they show in the how-to vids?
I ordered an extra number plate chunk so I could practice and get a feel for it before I started the big panels...tried a heat gun which helped but still didn't make it pliable enough but then brushing it with the propane torch flame made it really stretchy and lay down easy...of course, this is just on a test piece and I have yet to do the big panels but...

i used a torch, it would have been easier with someone to help hold the body work in place.
