What do ya think ?
 
preparing for a full body wrap on the Z302. Here is my first mock up. The maroon covers are now all black, carpet going in is a medium grey to match the side skirt color and uphostery is all white/grey

Wow! That looks great! Just curious, what does this all cost to do?

Is that just the wrap for $2,600?

That of course includes design, install and a clear marine layer that goes over the top when their done. It will incorporate my OR registration numbers as well and the wrap that will go around the back will be all carbon fiber. The next thing to work on is a the ghost image of the Mariah crest into the carbon that will be on the left rear side below the ladder.

Personally I dont like it. I've always been drawn to Mariahs for their build quailty and the simple and elegant looks. They had a few really bright obnoxious color schemes offered towards the end but I've never actually seen a finished boat on the water with those. I also dont like the look of wakeboard towers on them personally as well. I like some boats with all the flashy graphics such as when the Scarabs first started incorporating them. If it were me and that was what I was after I would look for a different boat that would offer a faster boat (who doesn't want more speed?) and one that lends itself to showing itself off in that fashion. I'm sure it will bring many comments out on the water though. First because its a 302 and second with all the flash added. I just think the boat is beautiful as it is.

I really like the graphics, I think I would lessen the mariah presence to not so dominant maybe 30% size and towards the back. But all in all I think that is incredible.

Cant wait to see the finished product, very cool.

My wife thinks the same. So tomorrow I'm gonna shrink it down and move it rearward some

I really like the styling of the challenger versions. But since I've never seen one in person, or one for sale for that matter, I'm building my own version.

Upholstery being done today and snap in rugs by Marine Carpeting | Aquamat | Snap In Carpet | Boat Carpeting | Corinthian Marine Carpet next week.

I've located a 502 engine and a bravo one lower unit to build this winter. My goal is to put this boat up and over 65mph (shooting for 70). At that point the loud graphics and updated styling will meet the performance.
