    Tank decals

    Hey there guys, does anyone know where you can get some gold stripe decals for a Bonnie (Hinckley) tank?

    Like on the early 80s ones



    Thought it might work on my Black SE Bonneville

    Cheers,

    Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.

    It's hand painted bro. Best get your camel hair brushes out.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    You can only hand paint it if you are wearing 30 year old unwashed grey overalls, are as skinny as a nail, have only three teeth and have one half-smoked dogend behind one ear and another hanging from the corner of your mouth.

    If you ignore all of the above it will all go horribly wrong.

    Buy some 3mm gold stripe from Repco (TFX brand is good stuff). Apply the stripe by hand, bending as you go, to achieve the shape you want.
    The trick is to get both sides the same...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    can probably make a cardboard template for that. I did it once with a Bueller striper....on of those things that looks easy when the demo guy uses it....like the Henrob welder and Gunsen colourtune..... sat in my drawer for 20 years.....
