Thanks! That rear blackout was the hardest vinyl install I've done (rocker stripes, tint on all the lights, hood scoop decal, rear valance, decklid blackout). They're small pieces that have to be just right. I didn't have to trim or cut anything. I used a solution of water, 2-3 capfuls of rubbing alcohol and a drop or 2 of dawn dish soap. I used it liberally, started in the middle and worked my way to the outsides til all of the bubbles come out. I used a hair dryer to help around the bends and to make the vinyl more manipulative and sticky. The hair dryer is a HUGE help! I def recommend using it. I haven't had a bubble on any of the vinyl but the headlights and tail lights and I think that's because I didn't use a hairdryer when installing those.

I think I'm going to get a roll of tint next and use my current light decals/vinyl as templates and re-do them a bit darker. If you weren't across the damn world, I'd give you a hand. It's pretty easy once you get used to it.

Question -

Has anyone ever seen those decals in matte (flat) black on a black car???

I think that would look pretty cool if they made them like that!
