Default rear bumper applique installation? D:

So i bought a rear bumper applique to protect my bumper from stuff when getting pulled in an out...

But its still not installed, and my dealership said they would install it

I come back the next day after the purchase because the decal guy wasn't there the day i bought it and now the decal guy said that thing is really hard to install

So, he refused to install it saying that it was going to waste his time as well as mine...

So i refund it.... but i still really want it, does anyone know a dealership in Queens/Long Island that can install these things?

any kind of decal/sign shop should be able to put it on for you vs. going to a dealership & paying a butt load for a big decal to be put on. also you should report your experience to the scion customer service peeps, that they refused to apply the ordered part when you purchased the vehicle.

oh btw, i bought it at the dealership, so it includes installation

its just that the guy said he had past experiences with it and that its extremely hard for that thing to stick on, so he refused to do it

I see alot of tCs now around flushing, but i guess none of them come on SL, it'd be great if we have mini meets or even roll out together to DPA.

But none that are BCP! :D

Not that many people are really enthusiastic about their car (in Flushing), most of them just buy and drive. We are the few (in Flushing, Bayside, yea... that kind of area) that care a bit more aobut their cars

I would love to have little meets but my car is so stock D:

Oh and whats DPA?
