Need pictures...Nice progress on the SPX. Let me know if you need any pictures or anything. I just picked up a mint 1996 SPX from a guy that had it on his yacht since 1996 and only has a few hours on it. He decided he needed a new ski for his new yacht, must be rough.
Brought the XP home from the hangar today. I don't like leaving the skis in the weather. We'll be headed to my friends paint shop for prepping and such. Not sure about color yet. I like the yellow but may add some "bling" I'm definitely leaving the gelcoat on the bottom alone. This picture might look like the finish is salvageable but there are a number of deep gouges. Where do I buy the rivets and tools to install the black rails? How many rivets do I need? I found them on the parts page but it doesn't tell you the length or number needed.View attachment 36521
I'm gonna stick with aluminum. Rivets are 20 years old... The have different part numbers for the bow rail and side rails so I was asking for info on the rivets and numbers of. I'm pretty close to the Gulf myself.
Looking for the color number for they yellow on the XP.
Thanks that is certainly what I was looking for on the Gelcoat side. I will check it out.Gelcote international out of Canada has brp colors by year this is what I found under 1996 1996 Sea Doo Super Yellow (Bright Yellow). That might work for you. I bought a repair kit for my 96 fax from them pricey but I don't have to try and mix colors to match.
I have a great deal of experience with that... no thanks. It is not that easy.Gelcoat color number? Yellow? You'll only get one choice of yellow from suppliers. You're making things too difficult, if you're painting it, get a paint sample and match it
I have a great deal of experience with that... no thanks. It is not that easy.
Thanks Matt...the gray box on the SPX is one you set up for me. The XP's worked GREAT !! Gotta get the cooling water line thing sorted. I think I have a fitting on the pipe I don't need but... gotta check it out.Can't wait to hear test ride results. Looks like your making your own good luck.
