Mercury – Cowling Decal Set | 4.6L V8 250 Horsepower Pro XS Series | Marine Adhesive Finish | 8M0214863

Overview

There’s something unmistakable about a Mercury Pro XS engine when it’s dressed right. The lines, the colors, the stance—it all feels purposeful. When the decals start to fade or peel, the power is still there, but the pride isn’t quite the same. This 250 Horsepower Pro XS decal set brings that pride back. It restores the bold, confident look that matches the way this V8 sounds when it climbs onto plane. It’s one of those upgrades that feels small but hits you the moment you step onto the dock and glance at your cowling.

Performance & Practical Benefits

A clean decal set changes the entire presence of your engine. These decals lay down smoothly, follow the cowling’s shape, and stay tight even after fast runs or a full day of trailering. The colors match Mercury’s signature Pro XS style—deep blacks, sharp reds, and the unmistakable bold type that lets everyone know exactly what’s pushing your boat.

Once installed, the graphics look like they came straight from the factory. Edges stay smooth, the finish resists fading, and the whole cowling feels refreshed. When you’re heading out before sunrise or sliding back into the marina after a long run, your engine looks cared for, strong, and ready for another season. That visual confidence goes a long way, especially when you rely on your gear far from shore or deep in your favorite channel.

The high-quality adhesive simplifies maintenance, too. With regular washing and simple care, the decals hold their color and shape, resisting the salt, spray, and ultraviolet exposure that would quickly break down inferior materials. It’s a difference you notice every time you uncover the boat.

Why Buy OEM

With Mercury OEM decals, you know exactly what you’re getting: the right colors, the right outlines, and a finish built to last. Aftermarket sets often look close but never quite right. They can fade, peel, or misalign, leaving your engine looking patched together. A genuine Mercury Marine part fits perfectly the first time and saves you from frustration later. It’s a smart choice for maintaining both the appearance and the value of your outboard.
