To haga replicas??

Ive bought the decals off ebay and was wandering if I need to do any more work on the bike to get it up to a resonable looking standard?

I brought a blade a couple of years ago that was dropped

Had the bike repainted in Ford RS blue and applied the redbull decals.

Soapy water, hair dryer and took my time and it looked good. as for the mille I guess you mean anything else you need to do to make look like a haga?

There are a two options for you really, stick them on & laquer over them which gives a good finish & don't get caught when polishing or just stick them on. Might be worth asking a local bodyshop how much to re-laquer you panels as it does make a nicer finish. if you do choose that route then be sure to prep the panels before putting the decals on with a scotchbrite pad. ( i can always send you a couple)
What ever your choice you will also need a trigger spray bottle with soapy water, a spreader (c/card with masking tape on the edge will do) & a heat gun/hair dryer. if you get any bubbles that you cannot remove peirce it at opposite sides then smooth it over. If you have screen printed decals don't stretch them too much because the colour streches as well & the white base starts to grin thru.....

Good luck tho:thumbup
