Default TA Bezel and Decal install - Pics

Bezel was purchased from the WS6store, the decal was from Brent Frakner.

I don't understand why the camaro's didn't have this from the get go.

Hmmm.... I wonder why that looks SO familiar

Oh yeah, because it looks just like MY CAR:



Yeah, Brent is really cool! He was down for trying this out when I had the idea for the decal a long time ago even though it was very small and required 3 layers of vinyl (three different colors)... He even sent me two the second time when I had to order another one because I screwed the first one up

Anyways, at least we're not identical twins since I have since added the chrome overlay to the bezel:



Looks good

Look at the tutorial, should answer your questions.

Yep, Thanks Demonbird for the help. I tried to get brent to make one of those for me about the same time you got yours done. don't know if i wasn't clear enough on what i wanted at the time. All i had to do was tell him to make one exactly like yours and BAM I had it a week later.

Every time I have tried to do something cool, I ALWAYS find out later that you did it first and better then I did. I'm starting to feel like i'm chasing my tail here.

I SWEAR i'm honestly NOT trying to copy what your doing.

doesn't have to be made using layed vinyl (that's old school). I made several about 2 years ago with a thermal vinyl printer.

Looks like the last two posters hit on the nail because it's calling for some overlays!
