i bought a seat cowl and a hugger off ebay. both were black. I sprayed the seat cowl and added the decals (home made) - i think it looks ok.

the hugger however needs another coat but i ran out of my yellow. It will be getting it matched up to the rest of the yellow this weekend but i thought you may like to see it on Cool

my original side panels are now at works paint shop but i quite like these ones to be honest!


PS dont forget to PM me if you'd like anything similar for your seat cowls, swing arms etc etc etc etc

I am really liking this, but if I may offer a couple of niggles....?

1. Not keen on the swingarm decal - a bit too big for my liking
2. The "EXUP" decal.... the Cat doesn't have an EXUP valve so it's a bit like putting a 'turbo' sticker on a normal car!

Overall though, great work and nicely done. Clap

Bit too much bling and stickers for my liking, but really impressed your willing to have a go at painting your own bike!! Well done!

Thanks im really pleased as i prefer "busy" bikes

the bike is as bought (but with less decals actually as i took off a load of monster energy and 'thundercat' ones) - its only the hugger and the seat cowl i have painted, sorry i should have been more specific.

im not sure if the exup is part of the paint scheme or if its a sticker but will have a look today

and i agree the swing arm decal is too big. think that can come off too

Hey Emm,

Have you branched out into car window stickers? if you did something along the lines of 'My other car's a :yzf: ' (dunno how easy the proper script is to do) i'd have one.

I can have a play n see what i can come up with.


Ps. The exup is laquered in with original paint job. :( I suppose its just like the fiat yamaha scheme, it wasnt meant for the thundercat, its just a replica.
