Title: Gss Tank Letter Placement
Post by: Milan on October 25, 2024, 11:04:15 AM
I got my TZR250 gas tank painted.
I managed to find the " YAMAHA " decals for it.

When I place them, the bottom of the letters is not parallel with the Re/white transition line, like the originals were.

Are these meant to be cut into individual squares and then bottom lined up?
I was thinking that the whole decal was just placed at 1 time, before I started looking into this.

Thanks for any help

The OEM stickers I have are individual, all on one piece of paper.

I was thinking you just peal off the bottom, then put down & peal off top layer.

But, the lettering is not curved as to match the tank line.

neither are mine. drop a line of painters tape to use a lower guide and place them.

I can get the bottom placement correct using your method above.
But then the spacing needs to be correct?
