Ok, So from what I hear, the 450r gas tanks vents through the plastic tank and could potentially cause bubbles in my new graphics.

I just put my tank graphics on...with a full tank of gas! Now some people say they have done this with no bubbling what so ever, but I just wanna make sure. Theres no turning back now so I was wondering if I left the cap off (with a paper towel rubberbanded to it) for a few days, Would that help the tank vent any better and allow my graphics to setup better???

Your idea couldn't hurt....so I'd go for it.

From what I understand, this happens at it's worst when there is in fact no, or very little, gas in the tank and the fumes make the graphics brownish tinted. I guess it's not as bad if the tank is full of gas:confused:

You're fine. Thats what the holes in your tank graphic are for.

i wouldnt worry about it shiftfmx, rather i dont worry about it cause i got those graphics (in black), and not only does the holes vent but they make it way easier to rub air bubbles out.
