I am considering changing the graphic scheme and pistriping on my Talari. Has anyone does this DIY and if so, who did you get your graphics from? Any pointers on design and instalation? Thanks all!

    I saw a few threads here on the graphics but no real sources or hints about if it is something that can be DIY. ShabahZ250, I like the graphics on yours! Looks great. Any help?

    Re-striping and redoing the whole decal package is a big job. It can be done, but it's best left to a professional, especially for installation. The "Indy Style" checkered flag design is pretty easily replicated, and most professional sign shops can help you out there. The average cost depends on the size of your boat, but expect at least $500+ to redo the whole thing.

    There's a Z302 here for sale locally that apparently had some decal damage to it. The owner must have paid bottom dollar for the decal job, or did it themselves, because they couldn't even replicate the OEM stripes right, and every 4-5 feet, the decals overlap and go slightly crooked, and it looks like complete hell. It really kills the look of the boat. They're having a hard time selling it too. Just remember you get what you pay for.
