Has anyone added a decal kit to their bike?
I'm thinking about putting a camo decal set on my bike (to go along with the gun rack). Has anyone ever bought one of these? Kawasaki Motocross Graphic Sticker decal Kit - Kawasaki MX Graphics for: kx450f, kx250, kx500, kx125, kx450
I'm curious how well they will cover the plastics. Like, would I need to get black plastics to avoid my reds showing through, or would they be completely covered.

It will cover most of your plastics but red will be popping out here and there above the rear wheel and the underside of the shrouds . The front fender will be the worst as its decal only covers a few inches out front.

That's what I was afraid of. In doing some research there are a few places that sell rolls of camo wrap that are photorealistic for cars, ATVs, etc. With that I could go right up to the edge. Although a little more time intensive since there isn't a patter to follow, but I don't think it would be too difficult. I could then paint the underside of my front fender as that would really be the only exposed part.

That's cool, thanks. I'm definitely going to go with a vehicle wrap as opposed to the cut-outs. They look way better, will fit better and probably will last longer. Not to mention cheaper, I can buy a 4' x 5' sheet from a variety of places for under $100.
Here's a few I'm looking at.
My main concern is trying to apply/stretch the vinyl on to loose pieces but apparently it can be done. Just might have to find someone to hold them in place while I work on the wrap.
