    Anyone recommend a graphic/decal shop here in the Bay Area? Prefer east or south bay. Need a shop who can apply 3M scotchcal 220 vinyl decals to auto exterior. Thanks.

    better then stock with no fender liner ...Yes
    but there is better options that cost a fraction of the price. but they look stock from the outside, so no cool guy points.

    That’s sucks!!! Hate to see that again.
    In 1993, (I was 22) I spent 4 months re tiling 4 houses on Poipu beach after the hurricane. It was crazy seeing bungalows beached on the bare rocks that once was a beautiful sandy beach cuz all the sand got blown away. Bummer!

    808 ALLDAY!!
    Yeah had a bunch friends txt me about that. Kauai got hammered but it is one of the most wetest places on earth. Just like big island has the most active daily flowing volcano and people complain about being whiped out by the flow after they built their house on an old flow. Hmmmmm. Geee i wonder why u didnt see any warning signs.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    What are the graphics, individual logos or large wrapped areas? If they are just individual logos any sign shop can do that; Fast Signs, etc. If you have full wraps then don’t go to a sign shop since most sign shops don’t handle wraps. Find a company that specifically does wraps, tinting, etc. those are the guys that will do it right.

    That said, Gerber 220 series is standard vinyl not really wrap material so i’m guessing they are just logos. With enough attention to detail you should be able to apply them yourself. I can give you some pointers if needed, it’s what I do for a living.

    I also went with At the Helm. They are more affordable if you don’t care about them going all the way up to the top of the bedside. I like that the top is flat for the tie down point.

    As an aside, it turns out I was right about adding some weight to the front. The front end moves/bounces much less on these springs now. I was worried about adding too much weight but it feels like I could add a little more, and I can shave some later when I can afford to go synthetic. So if I can get Jason’s old skid plate straightened out I’ll be pretty well setup to get out and explore some fire roads/easy trails.
