Yea these really don't look too bad. I was favoring stripeman's vinyls, but if they never get put on the market :p, I'll obviously go with these.

Their website has instructions. But here is what I did: (use at your own risk) 1. Thoroughly cleaned area with Liquid dish soap/ warm water mix and a lint free rag. 2. Dried area to look for any road gunk left… none. 3. used a new spray bottle with warm water / liquid soap mix (not too much soap needed) to spray the car. Really wet. 4. Sprayed the tacky side of the vinyl with mix AS I PULLED IT OFF of the paper backing so it would not stick to itself (like tape does) 5. placed wet vinyl on wet car. vinyl will slide around very easily for position. Note: it is kinda hard to see the exact corner of the stamped sheet metal gill on a yellow car so I used my fingers and fingernails to "feel" for position. You can feel things on a car body that you can not see, ask any bodyman. 6. once in position I held the bottom of the vinyl in position with my fingernail and squeegeed a small portion of the vinyl with another finger, then rechecked position. 7. after verifying position I held the pre-squeegeed area down and squeegeed the rest with my fingers…. This gets MOST of the water out but NOT ALL. 8. next I held the bottom (just for safe measure) and used a real vinyl squeegee to finish the top, then repeated finishing the bottom. 9. I lightly dabbed the excess water/soap mix off with a dry rag. 10. I did not use heat… just pulled it out in the sun after install. I am very happy for the price. This looks quite involved when written out but I could have done 2 cars in the time it took me to type this! I just wanted to see how many times I could use the word squeegee!
