Got started with my Retro HotRod Graphics last night. I'm no artist so I can't do skulls or naked chicks so I have to stick with the simple stuff. Used some chrome & yellow vinyl. Been layin out ideas on the puter for awhile and decided it's time to get'er done. I got a vinyl cutter years ago to make stickers for our karts and try to offset some of the racing expense. Don't have any of the fancy new print & cut equipment so I used a rattle can of red fusion for my airbrush..LOL..Cut chrome backgrounds to accent the flames. Can ya believe I laid out the whole blaster to match the super cheap seat cover I got on eBay...LOL...cheap Otis! Anyway here's the rear fenders I did last night.

BTW: I didn't trim the fenders just for fun. This is original 89 plastic. The YZ pipe took away the front fender support & made'm flap like a hummingbird. The rear I cut down to get rid of the cracks with Frankenstein stitches.

I painted the black background on. I'll lock everything down with clear coat later.

Reshaped the front fenders a bit and had to repaint'em. They need to cure awhile before I do those.

i like it but why not balasterforum on the from, all i see is e2s??

Blasterforum is way bigger on the back and that's where most riders will see it from...LOL...I've been a proud member of E2S for quite a few years, learned a lot there, have a few 2-strokes layin around and like the folks there. No excuses for the E2S sticker :)
 
shoooooooooooot i never even noticed it on the front there but the blasterforum one is about the right size!
