    HELP...on raised SKEETER letters

    My rig (06 Zx200) has the raised SKEETER letters on both upper sides...as expected, one letter got sliced thru...gluing it just does not get it done...need some input...
    Can I just take off the letters (using hairdryer)?
    Have you done that?
    Can you order just the white T? How?
    Does it have a peel off and stick procedure for replacement letters?
    THANKS..

    Re: HELP...on raised SKEETER letters (reelman)

    I had to order the whole "SKEETER" sticker to get the "R" I needed. It was $40 from my local dealer.

    I used a razor blade to pull up a corner of the letter and simply pulled it off. I used some thinner to get the glue residue off.

    There are a few guys on here that have letters.....jsut wait and see if they respond to your post. I think they may be the same letters as on the 96 Skeeter.

    Re: HELP...on raised SKEETER letters (Olddawg)

    Thanks... am thinking on the issue...with the hot temps here I may just want to take the letters off that side and live with it... can I order letters directly?

    Let me know if you purchase the SKEETER decal, I just happen to need the “R” and can help you offset your cost.

    Find Crazy Elvis and get the "bug." I had the same problem. I took the letters off and had Elvis make a bug for me. Same colors as my boat. It looks really good.

    Re: HELP...on raised SKEETER letters (SKEETERBUG1)

    I lost a couple first time out to lake St. Clair. They never stay on. I just took a pic of the sticker and measurements to a custom decal shop and had him make two. Worked great, plus you can customize.
