Thanks all for the nice comments!! I really like it.

For those that are thinking about trying this yourself, it really was pretty easy. You use a soap and water mix sprayed on the car so the vinyl won't stick until you want it to stick. I probably messed with some of the pieces for a good 20 minutes or more until I liked the fit. Once you get them where you want them, you squeegee out the excess and it dries there. Make sure to use a soft squeegee so it won't scratch the vinyl. It was only about $50 off of Ebay so if I messed it up, not a big deal. Was definitely worth it to me.

Thanks again all!!

fine.. make me the bringer of all evil details...

i'll have to agree with what someone else said up there.. blacked out emblems would help tie it together better..

but then again, i'm not a fan of this "modern/retro" style GT emblem/logo either.. which is why i removed mine, and nowhere on my car is there a "GT" logo.. ITS A SLEEPER!?!?!?!?! lol i digress.. sorry..

again, you make the installation sound/look easy.. but not sure i'd attempt it on such a large scale...
