Performance & Practical Benefits

A decal doesn’t change how an engine runs, but it absolutely changes how it feels to own. This rear 9.9hp decal gives your ProKicker that crisp, finished look — the kind you expect on a well-kept rig. Whether your old decal peeled from years of sun and weather, or you’re restoring a used motor you picked up, this replacement brings everything back to center.

Mercury builds these decals with strong marine vinyl that doesn’t crack, chalk, or curl at the edges after a season in harsh conditions. The adhesive bonds tight and steady, so once you press it into place, it stays put through vibration, spray, and constant UV exposure. You’ll notice how cleanly it lays down — smooth, tight, and secure, just like a factory installation.

Working around docks, trailering long distances, and constant engine tilt cycles all take a toll on cosmetic parts. Restoring the decal helps the engine match the reliability it delivers under load. It’s one of those small, satisfying upgrades that makes your boat feel taken care of — and that pride carries right into your time on the water.

Why Buy OEM

Aftermarket decals might look similar online, but the differences show up fast. Colors fade quicker, edges peel early, and shapes seldom fit the contour of the cowling perfectly. A genuine Mercury decal is designed to match your engine down to the line weight and shade. It installs easily, stays sharp longer, and completes the motor exactly the way Mercury intended.

When you’re restoring, maintaining, or freshening up a ProKicker, OEM parts are the simplest way to make sure everything looks and fits right the first time.
