Default If you have Trans Am overlays read here plz

I was wondering how the overlays like the ones on http://www.fourthcircledesigns.com/ are? Do they hold up to the weather good? They're plenty cheap enough. I was wondering who has them and if they crack/weather bad? Plz let me know

Thumbs up

I bought a set of vinyl decals from http://www.fourthcircledesigns.com/ and everything was great. The prices were great, shipping was more than fair, the quality seems to be very good, they arrived in like 2 days in the mail, and although mine are only a few months old they seem fine. I got a whole set plus more for my wheels.

I didn't wash my car before installing the vinyl decals. Instead I "spot washed" each area and I got each area of the car wet again with soapy water before putting each vinyl decal on the car so that I could "slide" the vinyl decal a little this way or that way to get it just right. A few times I had to take the vinyl decal off, get the area wet a second time, and try a second time because I wasn't placing it exactly where I wanted it to go. As the soapy water behind the vinyl decals dries, the vinyl decal sticks really well to the car.

For me the hardest decal to apply was the "bird" that goes between the tail light assemblies. I got it to come out fine but it took more time than I expected.

I need to post a few more pictures of my vinyl decals like the doors and the wheels. Some pictures of the hood and rear are already posted in these threads:
