Odd question: Seeking exact measurements/template for speedo surround

I did this but not with my Fazer, another bike. I dont have pics but can tell you what I did..

I used a piece of sticky back carbon fibre square larger than the square (shape) of the area being covered. So in this case enough to cove the gold fascia.

Make sure its a square shape. Place over and make a mark with liquid paper or dab of white paint, where you can feel the clocks. Take away the card then make a hole where the paint dabs are. Make a cut starting from the hole , outward, about 2 cm, into an "X" shape. Place the card back over the clocks and push the card down and the "X" over the clock. May need to increase the "X" size - trial and error, but do it in SMALL STEPS, like 1/2 cm at a time. push card down and around the base of a dial and using a craft knife cut around the base of the dial to make a neat circular cut.Take off the card and remove the backing paper then starting at the top put the card over and fit into place.



aaaand back on topic...

I like this idea, thanks!
I'll give it a go as soon as i'm able.

I'll try it with paper, so that:

1. I don't waste vinyl
2. I can make a template
