Default Trans Am Graphics from fourthcircledesigns.com

How did you guys get these on, its really hard to get them on straight i put some windex on the back on the graphic but its still really hard to put on right. the only one ive tried so far is the one over the headlight, the letters are so small and my fingers are so big. Is there any trick to this im missing?

thanks

the trans am on the side overlay the pontiac on the back fill in and the bird on the front

I think it might be easier with those ones instead of tryin to do the headlight first with those tiny little letters

There really isn't a trick to it, just clean the area wipe off with some alcohol (not jack daniels) and line them up and stick em on.

You aren't supposed to use any liquid when applying this type of vinyl decal, or so I've been told. So let us know how it turns out.

Just take your time and dont push down too hard if you aren't sure they are lined up right because you will have to peel them back up and re-stick.

AT first it doesn't look like is going to stick with the soapy water but let them dry up and it will be fine, I had them on for about 5 -6 months , Now my stripes were a mess and i have told them to send me knew ones a few times and no answer yet its been about its been a while so im very mad at them
