Rep Power: 0 Spray on a mixture of dish soap and water on the decal and on the part of the car that u want the decal on....once it is on, position it to the way you want it (no worries, the soapy solution will neutralize the adhesive), then take a hot air dryer and blow it over the deca till it fits snug...then take a very sharp knife and cut along the moulding....the hot air dryer will shrink the decal to fit tightly into spaces...

Rep Power: 0 silent rage does have great decals, thats where i got mine from. to tell you the truth, its best to get them installed by someone. i tired doing it my self and they came out horrible. i had to re-order mine. you can ask roy this too, the owner of silentrage, that it takes alot of practice to do decals right.
I sure wish my car was newer

Rep Power: 365 I'm sorry this is kind of off topic for the thread, but how do you take care of a decal on your car? I was thinking about having silent rage make me a custom decal, but I don't know how to clean the car afterwards. Are there any special precautions to take when washing/ waxing?

Rep Power: 0 i got it done at a shop that makes and installs signs for company cars, only this shop also did car decals. just look under "signs" in the phone book and there should be shops that do auto decals.
