    Nunyabizness,

    Wipe down the area with alcohol, then lay the decal on the hood and use fridge magnets to hold it down. Once you have it aligned take a long piece of masking tape and run straight down the middle from windshield to grille. Flip the decal either left or right and lightly cut the backing paper. Then start at the tape and lay one side out with soap and water. Once you squeegee out the water the bubbles should all be gone, then move the tape to cover what you just did, and redo the opposite side.

    I got a great price, after an hour of negotiating, the manager made a counter offer for $22890, and I reluctantly agreed before he realised he had knocked $8k off the asking price. Even with Toyota CPO warranty, Platinum 100k Bumper to Bumper, and 7 years Maintenance Plan, I still paid less then I was budgeting. All in was $27,658. I was very pleased with my purchase.

    Here is a closer up picture. 20180728_093146.jpg 20180728_093219.jpg


    Wow nothing like bad flash angle and shitty lighting to show just how dirty your wheels are, lol. Time to hit the car wash and add some tire shine.

    Ok so New blacked out Texas Badges have arrived. Going to try some experimental BBP paint fill on the letters and see how they look. If it looks like a stuck pig going to remove the paint and leave them solid matte black. My billet black valve stem caps arrived today as well. Guess it's time to start making her look pretty. 20180731_132155.jpg
