    People buy stickers for their ski to cover up dodgy or minor repair they don't have time to fix. But jungle tape seems to be the way to go. it's cheap and water proof so i've heard

    That's it....CHEAP. I wouldn't cover a scratch with a sticker.......the scratch is the point from which the sticker will peel off 1st. I'd sooner pay $100 & get it sprayed over.

    I'm just wondering if they plan on making vehicle specific graphics & kits, ie custom sticker kit for '08 RXP-X, 3 designs avail. etc etc.......coz unless they do they're wasting their time.

    What r the weekly repayments on an RXP-X......$100+? Who's gonna spend 2 weeks payments on stickers when u can spend $200 on fuel or somethin worthwhile? I'll tell u......the rich bugga's who paid cash outright & just wanna be set apart from the crowd, but r they common enough to make a living from?

    I would consider buyin a wicked lookin custom kit for my ski if it were cheap, but then if it were cheap would it be good quality?

    Hiya,

    I just wanted to acknowledge that you all have very valid points (negative though they are) toward the concept.... although interestingly enough there are similar businesses whom we've contacted with a different survey who tend to get a fair amount of custom.

    As some have pointed out the concept is limited in scope... something which we are working on... however since it's a uni assignment (a random marketing subject they threw into a graphic design and illustration degrees, in fact)... I probably won't include the more negative comments. Unless they're part of a survey response, of course!

    I'd like to thank the one person who has helped out so far by actually filling the survey in, too. Ta Shark!

    I was just stating the realistic & true facts, like it or lump it.........it's no skin off my nose. As I said I wish u the best of luck & if u do pull it off & provide a good product at a betta price than the rest I will use & promote u but I doubt it will happen. It's not MY negative opinion, it's a REALISTIC fact based on experience & yrs of observation........ie long B4 u were at uni. I did the survey coz if it helps create a business that provides the above then it goes in my favour too.

    Do I get something 4 crackin 1000 posts?
    Pay? Did someone say pay?
