Default Vinyl Wraps

I was wondering what people thought about vinyl wraps.
http://www.bikeskinz.com/designtypes.htm . Check out this site and give me some opinions. I'm trying to get out of painting the plastics.
I was thinking about getting the Massacre one.

that looks pretty cool... I like the red bull one myself
To me $400 is alot cause with a little time and patience you could paint your bike for less but if you dont want to paint the go for the wrap

those are sweet. but i'm guessing it is printed on a sheet, and YOU cut and form each piece yourself. really easy to F@$k it up for $400.

Thanks for the replys. But, I don't know what I'm going to do just yet. I looked at as a custom paint job for $400. Can't beat that anywhere!! And it wouldn't take as long.

Applying the wrap to the bike might be harder that you think. Its a flat sticker that you have to wrap around curves and bends. I used to work for a sign company that did vinyl lettering and stuff.
It will take patience to get air bubbles out and make it look good. IMO

I have seen the "SHARK" on a Busa... thought it was cool. Don't think I would have the patience to apply it myself though.

If you decide to go with the Skinz, let me know, I work for a company doing vinyl wraps on vehicles. I have wrapped wrapped VW Bugs and SSR and would be happy to give you some tips and pointers.

Hurayta,
Thanks. I am thinking about doing it. Send me whatever pointers/instruction you got so I can get a better feel of what needs to be done. I've done tint on cars and I know that can be a pain but worth it once the project is complete.
