I'm glad you guys like them. i worry about things like that cause i have pride in what i make.

On another note.

I made these last week and forgot to post a pic.



These are the ones for the windshield.

Wow, this was a monster read from the beginning!! JJ, great work on these. I might be interested in one as well. Thought about body colour (or close match) brake light covers? Also, I have another project that you might be able to help me with. Tried to get help from another member (also a graphics guy) a while back, but nothing came of it. I'll get with you on the details.

JJ is making me a custom windshield decal for Tony. who's installed these before? is it a two-person thing or should I be able to do it myself? i don't want it to be crooked :-/

I would say to have 2 people so one can move and the other see if its straight. Then tape it down and start removing the paper backing.

Or you could get a shop do do it for you.

If you do it yourself it's a good idea to keep the windshield wipers turned up, and tape it down with removable tape and get in the car to make sure you like it before you place it.

So you know where your wipes will hit your vinyl while they are turned on.
