.... far? i guess...

but i drive around alot.

i went down to carmel just this afternoon for something.... i spent less time there then it took driving there...
and hahaha... and then can't forget the drive back home....

maybe borrow my buddy's heat gun and we can meet up halfway somewhere.. or even at his shop. allen (ichibansf) comes down pretty often and he's up in SF too.

can we make this a sticky?
bat. do you put the overlay down and stick the bottom half first (whole thing below the trun signal)? then do the top part?

the problem i had last time is that i was doing the right taillight and i worked from the outside in (right to left) which was working great until it started bunching up, thats when i used the heat gun to streach it which worked ok but then it would make other areas bunch up. this is what messed it all up.
thanks

so let me make sure i got this right before i attempt it this sunday.
1. wet it and put the whole thing on the taillight
2. do you completly stick on the lower half? then start from the right and go left for the turn signal? like in pic. 7 and 8.
so the last part you do is the top corner by the trunk lid?
