    Is the non stick backing cut in half to make it easy to position on the hood? I've been thinking about getting it for the glare also. Already did the scoop

    I installed this drunk lol and pulled it off flawlessly. Just clean area, lay decal face down on a clean surface table etc. peel off entire backing ,spray the sticky back side of sticker and the area where it's going with soapy water. Gently lay it in position ,slide it around till you are happy. Work out the bubbles from the center with a credit card with a piece of cloth over it so you don't scratch the decal

    Ah ok the soapy water type of application is way easier! I bet I could get the wife drunk & have her do it :thumbsup:

    I really love the hood decals! They have fixd the glare in the eye issues I was having. I had the same person who applied the hood scoop decals do the rocker panels and the bedsides as well.

    Click the arrow in the pic to see the hood scoop

    I like how you incorporated the vintage Toyota 3 stripe into the bed decal. Is there a 3rd Gen kit for the front & back fenders to make that vintage look?

    I couldnt find a vintage kit i liked so we came up with the design on the bedsides. Angie from BL Vinyl perfected the design and came up with what you see

    So is this vinyl only adhere to the hood and not the scoop? And does anyone have a link?

    PM me when you get them on. Wanna check this out. Looks like they have some cool stuff on their Facebook page!

    I got the Import Equipment hood decal but I haven't put it on yet. Does look a little different shade of matte black from the Avery wrap I did on the scoop already. Maybe some sun fade will get them matching in time...
