I wonder if regular vinyl graphics would work or are the Seadoo ones special bc of the plastic on the jet ski? I don't think just anything can stick to these but I'm down to find out!
Graphics Kit on Yellow Spark?
Hey
Just bought a 2014 spark in yellow and wanted to put some graphics on it. Has anyone had any cool designs for their spark that they could share?
I'm probably going to get them done by a graphics company since the spark dealers charger $450 and all of them are refusing to install them for me because it's too much work (I got quoted 6 hours by one dealer @ $100 p/hr!)
Cheers
Pete

The Spark ones are specific to the special plastic on the ski. Same as the special numbers you have to buy for registration.
That does look good. Is it just regular vinyl wrap?
The Sea-doo made graphics look good, but they are expensive. I imagine you could find a better deal elsewhere.
What kind of graphic are you thinking of?

These are the Seadoo graphics and yes they are costly. They hold up well and fit good.That does look good. Is it just regular vinyl wrap?

Looks great. Do you think the 3 hours is typical, or did you get through it faster or slower than the average bear?Yellow 2 up with a graphics kit from Rehab Wraps. Took me about 3 hours to install it. Taken it out twice since I installed it and it is holding up perfectly fine.
I bet he can cut that down by an hour. Usually the first time doing this stuff there's a bit of a learning curve.Looks great. Do you think the 3 hours is typical, or did you get through it faster or slower than the average bear?
The hardest part was figuring out where each little piece actually went. If I had to do it again, it would be sub 2 hours for sure.
Two to Three hours is good for a first install. Once you get a few installs under your bet it gets much easier. Our certified installers get them stuck in 45 minutes or less. Here are some awesome tips for Spark Graphics installation! Their higher quality material really helps make for an easier install.

^ Great looking graphics, awesome customization to the Black Sea Design! Good work on the install too!!
where do the awesome looking seats come from? Are they stock? I would love a black seat on mine.
The graphics for the Spark are not "special". The adhesive is the same as graphics for other power sports machines such as dirt bikes or snowmobiles. The key to successful graphics installation is surface prep. I bought an install kit from DeCal Works that contains 3 solutions. One removes any old adhesives, oils and other stuff. The 2nd solution preps the plastic. And the 3rd solution allows for a wet application. The allows you to slide the vinyl around to get it into perfect position. Then you work the bubbles out and let it dry to activate the adhesive.
The other key is patience!
