Anyone ever dealt with Bikeskinz or any other vinyl wraps for bikes? I wanted to compare a $576 vinyl to a full fairing paint-job, Upper, lower, sides and tail.


Also, anyone recommend a good speedy paintshop? If i go with paint, I want quality work, but I also don't want my bike in a shop for 3 days to get painted..

Thanks yall!

Vinyl will not give you that shiny finish that you get with a paint job (unless you're looking for flat colors).

Also, vinyl will fade with sunlight, eventually...no matter what they tell you.

I'd say paint it.
