Default 96 talari z240 graphics

Anyone know how I could get a set of graphics to replace the faded gray ones on my Z240 talari? I contacted the man that has a lot of the old Mariah parts and stuff (Mike) and he didn't have any for my year model. If no originals are available anywhere, what did you guys do to replace yours?

Thanks,
Paul

    If Mike doesn't have them, then you may be out of luck, since he bought the stock directly from the manufacturer that made them for Mariah back in the day. If you want to stick with the same design, some higher end sign shops can recreate the design for you, but it'll cost a pretty penny.

    A lot of people (including myself) who can't find OEM replacement graphics and didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars to have them recreated have removed the graphics, heavily waxed the hull, and just kept the boat it's natural color. I actually think the boat looks a little more modern without the graphics than with.

    That is a very good option that I will probably end up doing. I've already forked out a bunch of bucks so far on getting things in working order, and having oem style graphics custom made in sure will put it further in the money pit. Havent seen one yet without the graphics, so I need to go check out the gallery to see if i can find one.

    Thanks!

    Who is the member that has original graphics and do you think the adhesive would still be good??

    Long as they are in a climate controlled area , they will be fine.
    I have purchased multiple graphics from "Mike", and had zero issues.
