Trans Am Door Overlays
Just wanted to know if anyojne has ever used put door overlays on their car from Phoenix Graphics. I got a set of red to put on my Black T/A. I thought I did everything correctly but I could not get them to stick to my door for nothing. I tried peeling them off individually and could not get them to stick. What brand is everyone using? Are these even any good. The decals ended up twisted, and I couldn't separate them from the covering. I threw them in the trash and now have to get some more. I really hate to spend another 39.50 for them if there is some you guys are using that aare easier to apply than these. Any suggestions?

yeah I washed them before applying. They stuck to the side of the door, but when I tried to pull off the covering of the decals they came right off with the covering. I had a hell of a time getting them off the covering.

Yeah I don't want stickers, but the emblems. I'll look at Ebay. Were the ones you got easy to apply?

Don't just wash the area, you gotta prep it. I always wipe the area down with some rubbing alcohol to remove any wax/polish that might be there. If there is any wax/polish on there it won't allow the adhesive to stick.

I just used my thumb to get most of the remaining old adhesive off the door. Peeled off the new and started putting them on. Here are some pics.
