Default RE: stripes installation?

Its not hard at all, suprisingly I found vinyl very forgiving. As long as you do a "wet installation" you'll be fine.

A wet install means, just keep the bottom of the stripe wet (4drops soap for every quart) and make sure the surface is clean underneath it. Look around for some websites that offer step by step install instructions, I really encourage you to do it yourself, especially since it would be the same price attempting the stripe yourself a few times (aka messing up and reordering) as getting it proffessionally installed.
