Has anyone bought and used the graphic kits offered on Slingmods? Was wondering if I should get one or just go a professional and have them do their own vinyl?

I just got mine from Polaris, I'll try later maybe this weekend to install. I'll keep you posted.

Are you talking about the AMR graphics? I had them , they are great. Thick and easy to apply. They do take almost 8 hrs to put on when being careful. They are the thick graphics you put on atv's and waverunners. You can't help but get a couple bubbles, but most lay down after a day or so. Much more durable than standard 3M graphics.
If you are talking about the rally stripes, Mine should be at my house when I get home. I can review those for you later in the week.

I've also ordered the exterior painted kit in white, and it will be Polaris Lighting 1/3 blue in the middle (red, white, and blue).

Looking forward to seeing it @mytoy .
The complete "9pc Rally Graphic" kit took my wife and I , 2 1/2 hrs. It is a lot thinner than the AMR graphics but has a heavy backing that allows you to squeegee the bubbles out without fear of hurting the vinyl. You don't get any bubbles that don't squeeze out, though I did get a couple small wrinkles that I couldn't get out. You will want a helper to install these and I highly recommend a wet application. They do look great once done!!!
Thank you @robert.piner , the color is a better match than I anticipated. It also does the bronze--brown--black appearance depending on viewing angle just like my roll bars.

They came out awesome!
Let me know if anyone else is interested

I did put other decals on, and yes I purchased "special liquid" to spray on first (wait for @Tripod) so far no problems but I'll find out.

Thank you all for the replies. The AMR were the ones I was thinking about, but now you've got me thinking about doing a flat black 9 piece on my red slingshot.
Here is what it looks like!

Message me when your ready!
I love the look, but I'm going in a little different direction. I wait for the following, and after I receive it still will be modifyed. My SS is Red then the white and 1/3 will be Blue.

Awesome job Brother!!! All I can say is that it has the look of Class with a touch of Luxury thrown in for good measure!!!!

Has anyone bought one of the entire body graphic kits from AMR?

What are your thoughts now that you've had them for a while? I'm interested in the "Firestorm" graphic...I would like to see some pictures from anyone that has that graphic kit.

I have their attack kit. The biggest issue initially is trying to figure out how they put these kits together. A LOT of the panels do not line up well so you're left having lines that don't line up from one piece to another. Also after a few months (here in the Florida sun), a few of the pieces that make tighter radius turns start to shrink up slightly and lift. Their }warranty" policy is to sell you an entire replacement kit at a discounted price! That is no warranty in my book

They are great, take your time putting them on. There are about 125 pieces and it took my wife and I about 8hrs to install. A pair of helping hands comes in very handy while applying. They are think and tough. You do get about 1/8 to 1/4 inch gap between each panel. Some very small bubbles will be there when your done installing them. Those are few and far and the graphics help to make them disappear to everyone except the person that applied it. I had mine a little over a year, they have a 5yr warranty against fading, which mine never did. Holds up well in an accident also.

@funinthesun has a great point, be sure to cut inside tight bends at the center of bend with a razor knife. Tight bends will pull up in the corner. I never asked them about warranty, FITS would know he was one of the first with the kit.
