Accidently scratched my brothers bike :/
Dont ask.
Anyway been looking around, anyone know where I could find a replacement decal set matching the original?

Ignore the red R and arrow thats been added on after I think.

GSXR 2012 Perl White with a silver checker flag motif.

Sure it's scratched the decal and not just the laquer over it? I'd try a bit of t-cut and see if it polishes out.

Yeah it looks like its gone into the ink. I dont think theres any lacquer over the decal at all. Its a matt finish thing.

Basically my brother has this horrid habbit of putting his bike in the kitchen, I accidently caught it with the dishwasher door. Not happy about it, genuinely feel bad even though hes screamed everything after the sun at me...

Even though we dont get on, I still want to try and make it right...

Slap a Hotpoint sticker over the scratch.

Better off getting a price on a new panel. Even if the decal is available getting the old one off and the new one on to an acceptable standard will be very difficult.
