Help me pick new graphics for my 22ve

[killerbren]

Hi Guys, I think its time for the old tribal decals to come off the 22ve and i'm trying to decide on what to put in its place. I tend to like the newer style graphics like what is on the Z1, Z3, RZ2, etc.

I was also going to put the cromax logo's on the back corners.

Here is a pic of what I have now:

This is kind of what I was thinking:

Does anybody have any pics of their 22ve or 24ve that they have removed and updated?

I have a set of graphics for my Z3. PM me if you think you might go that direction.

I'm personally a fan of no decals. It also didn't help I found the original decal for my era to be ugly as sin so it was the first thing I removed when I brought the boat home. Nothing at all with the Chromax at the back like mine would look good. The 2010 and later era ve graphic wasn't bad.

Once you've decided on a couple options post up a better pic of your boat and the graphics and I can photoshop them on for you.

Thanks, i'm not too bad with photoshop myself, but don't really know what I want at this point. I agree that having no decals looks pretty good. It definitely looks better than the decal I have on there now, but in my opinion the no decal look is just missing something. I was just wondering what everyone is doing after they remove the old decal.

Maybe I should start with taking the old ones off then go from there.

Here's you blank canvas.lol.

And does anybody have any idea on where to get the Tige Chromax decals? is the dealer the only place to get them?

Hey Killer - only place that I could find the chromax logos was from the dealership. SECA brought them in and shipped them down to me pretty quickly. Super happy with how mine turned out last season.

I like it with the free ride Vé graphic.

I also have always loved the Chromemax decals for the back.

I bought mine from the Tige website direct.....did they stop doing that?

The Ve graphics do look good. I'd be curious to see what a guy could do with the Tige wave from back in the day. Especially if you did newer Chromax's at the rear corners. Take the old logo and two tone it with a faux chrome outline and Matte tone for the bulk of the letters and do the whole thing in vinyl, just BIG. I'm no Photoshop guy tho. Seems like it looks good in my head but is probably horrendous on the side of a boat, and I've been sailing with my friend Jerry.
Tried to link a Google image to no avail, but I'm talking about the 06ish Tige logo with the wave coming off the the é

[killerbren]

Jeff, sent an email off to SECA to see if they can bring them in for me, do you remember how much they charged you by chance?

Burnmac42, they don't sell the Chromax decals on the website anymore, just the tiny ones.

Dukes, I actually like yours better, so I changed mine a bit, I think I like it better.

The reason I am doing this is because I have to do a whole gelcoat polish and wax, so I wanted to deal with the ghosting while I was doing the big polish anyways. Will these decals stick onto a boat that has been freshly waxed? or should I put them on after I use the rubbing compound and before the wax? Any thoughts?
