Fitting Venture shield paint protection

Hey guy, has any of you dudes fitted venture shield before? Is it a right Gareth to fit or is it easy peasy? Any pointers, advise or do's & dont's workin with this slippery little sucker would much appreciated

Cheers Trev

 

Trev there is loads of recent info on a Thread and on you-tube .The general feel is have it fitted by others.

 

Cheers mate i found it

 

iv done 2 cbr1000rr fairings ! do the back first to get use to it i find it was easy to do but sayin that i did leave 2 marks on it ( bubbles i tryed to get out should lifted it up and sprayed it more but it was in a place i cant see ) the easyest bit is the fairin and you know which part is the hardest lol take your time and keep sprayin hehehehe good luck man

 

Cheers John thanks for your help mate

 

Get it fitted by a professional mate ..

 

Cannot agree enough with this, for £50 get a pro to do it you will get pissed off with it it is a proper art and easy to fcuk up, I cannot emphasise how much you wanna get a pro to do it !!!

 

I hear you guys but there's no installers in scotland so it looks like it's up to me! So let the battle commence

 

If after fitting or part way throught for that matter you've got any tips, please post up your findings as i'm in the same boat as you.

 

has any one tryed to put this stuff on ? i find it not to bad ok took long time but after about a hour of on off sprayin more got tthe hang of it ok head light fairin is hard but get in wet slip it on do top bits lined up and do first the work from middle out ! spray your fingers with the spray and work it in man lol cut out all the bits before you start

 

No worries Andrew will do mate! Has your gloves arrived yet mate?

 

Hi John im normaly quite good at stuff like this, what I'll do is take my time and treat it like a lady & maybe do it over a day or two

 

yes like a woman rofl fill a bit cuz i reallllly injoyed fittin this stuff hahahahaha

 

just fit mine this morning .
i found it dead easy ,as all i did was go next door and get my neighbour to fit it as he is a signwriter by trade.
it can be a bit awkward to get it right.

 

Yes mate gloves are with me cheers.
Have you attempted fitting yours yet?

Does anyone know if the fairing needs to be polished before you fit the venture shield or not??

 

Ideal Andrew hope they fit ok no mate you have to try to clean as much of the old polish off as you can before you start although it's not essential just for the best results! I've got 2 spray bottles 1 for baby bath & water and the other for isopropyl alcohol & water! The alcohol is to get the paintwork as clean as possible before fitting! I'll be fitting it over this weekend so wish me luck and I'll let you all know how i get on

 

Where did you buy the isopropyl alcohol

 

I raged binned loads fitted about 5 bits i cut myself NEVER again!!!!

 

I ordered some from Amazon Andrew i think it was £6 odds for 500ml bottle

 

Oh dear Bats have you tried anger management? Lol
Your makin me nervous dude
I'll try to keep calm, i'll ingest some of the very best narcotics and take it to a spirtual level so if i fark it up at least be happy
