Changed out the decals today... Didn't go as planned... Used a plastic putty scraper to get under the vinyl.. It worked all of 2 seconds.. The vinyl kept breaking apart... Went in and grabbed the hair dryer and they came right off..

Cleaned everything with bug/tar removal... Outlined the area I wanted and began laying the new decal... Mid ways the decal ripped... I thought I'd use the peeling method instead of ripping the protective layer off then laying the decal... I now need one new decal.. Looks good though..

when you apply the decal, mix up some water and just a drop of dish washing soap, spray it on where you plan to put the decal, then slowly squeege out the air bubbles.

It was sticky on one side... Figured it was self stick... Don't think I'm going to chance it again... Moody does great work and I'm d****ing up decals.. $20 bucks and let the pro's do it

That new decal looks amazingly good! Nicest decal I've seen on a truck, not to mention King Ranch.
