Very carefully. Really, or you can scratch the paint underneath, I used an alcohol pad to help get the stocker off and clean the space for the new one. It has some 3M tape on the back or something, cut really thin, just line it up and stick it on.

Actually nobody seems to notice it, so I get no remarks on it. That's why I figured Id post it in here, see what you guys think of it. That's one comment.

Im doing this black and silver theme with the car, and the stocker kinda throws it off. It was perfect for a black car. Silver manta comin soon, and Im tryin to work a deal on some FM5's now.

The bra will end up doing more damage to the paint over time ( scratches, the rest of the cars paint fading at a different rate. ) and look like *** in the process. Just saying.
