carrera graphic installation

I just thought I would share some pictures I took today showing the installation of side graphics.
The one thing I learned is using mild soap-water solution makes for a painless installation. It made it easy for lining up the graphic 2 inches above the door.I was able to measure while working across from one end to another.
It took me around 3 hours in total. The first side took longer until I got into a groove of cutting and removing the masking paper without lifting the graphic from the car.
When doing this job patience is a MUST. I took my time measuring and re-measuing.
Using this bulletin board for references was priceless. My thanks to prevuois posters.
I purchased the graphics from Mike @ NBD Graphics. He sells an excellent product. Easy guy to deal with.
Here are some pictures. Enjoy.

Brian

I can't think of a colour that suits these stickers better than yellow. Looks FANTASTIC !

I think I saw that car at the club social last night. Were you there? Looks fantastic, I noticed it right away when I pulled in the lot.
