NOT ALL MATERIALS ARE CREATED EQUALLY CUSTOMER MESSAGE
"Got them just now, thanks for including a(n) extra set! I've had 2 sets of CF look ones from another seller and silver stars kept peeling and the carbon look faded really bad." When purchasing vinyl overlays, keep in mind that not all materials are created equally.
We use premium vinyl which has high initial costs, but are the industry standards for high quality materials.

INSTALLATION
Recommended items:
The fluid, squeegee, and microfiber can also be purchased as a kithere.
Ideal install weather is 75-85 degrees for 24 hours or more during the drying / adhering process.
Keep a heat gun or hair dryer around to apply light heat to encourage adhesion and dry out liquids when doing a wet install. The materials are heat and pressure activated.
We recommend a dry or wet install for 3D carbon. This material is forgiving if you lay it down slightly off and pull it back up as long as you have not firmly pushed down a majority of it. The material has air egress channels to make it easier to install and get bubbles out with your fingers or a felt squeegee. Some squeegees can be too hard and scratch the material or you'll accidentally scratch your paint.
For other materials use a wet install. We recommend using Stickerfab application fluid.
Prepare the vehicle by cleaning the lower part of the door. Do not clean it with a wash and wax type product. You are trying to remove all residue from the paint. This goes for the OUTSIDE and the INSIDE of the door. The inside of the door catches a lot of dirt and debris. The paint on the inside of the door must be clean so you can wrap the vinyl around it.
The overlay follows the body lines. You can use painter's tape to draw a straight light across the entire body for better alignment.
Adhesion increases with pressure and heat. Use a hairdryer if needed. The extra vinyl will wrap around the door edges creating 100 percent coverage. Start with the front door and note our pictures. You want to get 100 percent coverage of the lower part of the door. Once you have this installed, start at the front of the back door and align it to the front door. The rear overlay should run under or close to the rear fender plastic that clips into the metal body panel. You can use force and pop the lower two pins out so you can run the vinyl behind it. If there is any visible paint here, we have included a small strip that can be used to cover it up.
Optionally, you can install additional stickers on top of the overlay like our 6" STI stickers (sold separately) .
