Does anyone know anywhere that profesionally fit em? In the Sheffield area? It's an absolute pig putting a big decal over side fairing!

Probably best asking one of your local vinyl wrapping places. Other than that, some body / paint shops may do it for you but I've no idea what you should expect to pay.

The fairing has some awful contours to go round. Needs heat to apply a decent finish. I tried... I failed...
Luckily tho I've been pointed in the direction of boogie paints rotherham. They'll fit em for a decent enough price. I've done the easy ones myself. I'll even post a pic up or two when it's all done!

a hair dryer normally helps with the contours
