cuanto dinero amigo?

About $1,000. less than getting the gouges, scrapes, scratches, ,and flake and gel coat repaired.....
It looks really good in person,....They also wrapped the back of the boat, for a total of 26 ft.
Now I have to repaint the trailer.

Once I settled on the design it only took them a day to put it on. they filled in a few dings and gouges as part of their prep.
nothing was done on the interior.
Only care is to use good bumpers around docks..and they said to use wax for vinyl, if possible. Regular wax is just fine. Keep it out of the sun during winter storage.
1 yr. on peeling, blistering and extreme fading.
They have hundreds of designs to choose from, Or you can come up with your own.

On second thought it has the same color of hair as G Rome but bald like me. It sucks to get old but I think G Rome is hanging in better than me. I want a ride in that boat.

Yeah, $1k is a good price. I get my boat back to the 48 in a few years and it'll be a bit chipped up on the front from two trips up and back and a wrap may be in order. I'm already thinking about what my wrap would be. A grand is a good price for good material and graphics.

looks good. $1k? Sounds like a very good price depending on the quality of the vinyl which is directly related the guaranty. I just dropped my boat off today at Xtreme Graphics in Lombard (western suburb of Chicago) to have my boat done too. Im paying $1300 for a 19' alumacraft tournament. My artwork is a personal hi res photo not a cgi. I'll just say its a hockey themed wrap. Ill post pics tues or wed when I pick it up. I did choose the higher grade vinyl which is guaranteed for 7 years. It's bound with the best 3M adhesive available for this application. Price often includes labor to remove old graphics. Lots of old vinyl=extra labor cost.

I didn't say it cost $1,000.
I said it was $1,000. CHEAPER than a total re-paint and gel coat job. It cost over $2,000. for a 21 ft boat.
A Blackhawks theme or something like that will look cool...... be sure to show us a before and after pic.

I actually am hoping to fish for eyes in the spring 2014 on the Detroit river. Id expect it to be interesting to say the least. Anyone care to ride shotgun with me? I really mean shotgun.
