What can I do to make my boat look better?

tazman7

Here is my boat. I dont have any current pics of it but here are some from last summer.

I now have two pro 80's on the tower but need to do something with the looks of it.

The interior looks good since it is brand new but the outside of the boat is ugly.

Im not looking to spend the money on a wrap that is going to only last two years but some type of sticker or pinstripping might change it enough that i dont hate the color of it...

I'd polish up and I would agree on maybe doing a newer style graphic, supra wave or supra logo.

Keep what you have and save money for the next boat. It looks fine to me.

I like the grey without the eye and teeth. Kind of a refreshed look without trying to make it totally look like a new boat, maintaining some of the classic look.

I think if anything you should match the color of the striping in your interior on the outside. Either by covering the teal completely or by doing piping around it and then doing an updated Supra logo with that same dark blue. If you cover the teal completely try and do a white updated Supra logo.

But then again, if it were me I probably wouldn't bother. It looks nice and well cared for and I think that matters infinitely more than if it meshes with what colors are cool right now.

or you could put a purple hornet on it and invite Larry "Grandmama" Johnson out to ride with you... Mr. Green

Well im not looking to do a boat wrap...Im more less looking for opinions on some pinstriping or something small to make it look a little better for cheap.

A boat wrap would prob cost half of what I paid for the boat itself...haha

dude the shark pant would be no work at all. Just some masking tape and some spray pait and a lot of clear

Go with b33's. clean look and it fits the boats style very well.

I say go with b33's as well. It is indeed very clean and it ties in with the interior. Seems like it would be fairly simple to do as well.

b33s shop looks great. Even the logo is period appropriate. Nice work.

Wow...b33 im impressed! Might have to take that picture to the sign shop and have them get to work.

How much you think something like that would run?? $200-$250 installed?
