Just busted out my old Roland plotter and cut a couple of things for my daytona. It's not on par with lots of the graphics I have seen on this site, but it works. Once I saw the red leopard motor against the cf when I first got the hull, red and black was going to be the theme. I have seen so many carbon daytona's with chrome lettering and such and liked the look so I decided to go with red chrome on this one. Simple but I like it. I just need to somehow find a windshield template or image and I'll cut that too. If I can't find one, I was thinking of just using the cats eye shape for the windshields.

Decided to give the eyes a try for the windshield. Not too bad. First one I cut was smaller, I thought they looked too small and went up 25%- I think it looks better, my 6 year old is pissed at me because he likes the smaller ones lol.

Thanks! Usually not a fan of solid color decals like this, but I think it all goes together nicely.

Looks awesome and the windshield is the best, something different and stands out! Simply lines with imagination just begs to be complimented!

Thanks guys! I'm glad I decided to give the cat eyes a try for the windshield, it goes perfectly with the fighter cat theme Imo. I did one more because my 6 year old saw the partial drawing I made a while ago on the computer, thought it was cool and insisted I use it lol.

Got it on the water today for the first time since the vinyl so I snapped a couple of pics.

Not yet. I was debating on doing so but have seen some very nice daytona's that blow this out of the water, so I wasn't sure he'd be interested haha.

Thanks Brandon! The boat has certainly gotten a lot of compliments at the lake as well. Really happy with the finished product! The more I look at the "crossbones" decal though, the less I like it. It looks a bit too phallus lmao. I thought I could just think innocently and ignore it but the more I see it, the more it bugs me. I think I'm going to redraw that one a bit differently lol.
