Sticker Connection | 12" Racing Stripes | Vinyl Decal Car Truck Rally Race Graphics Tuner Import Black | 12"x72"

The product arrived in a nice solid cardboard tube.The vinyl is a little stiff, a little unforgiving at times but workable.It can be/is difficult to wrap around hard edges/returns (i.e. fall off edges and panel butts).I recommend using a moderate amount of water (soapy water) and letting the vinyl edges dry a bit after squeegeeing before trying to wrap tight/sharp fall off edges for better adhesion.A hair dryer and a microfiber cloth also come in handy for persuading the vinyl, soaking up excess water while wrapping and working out air bubbles. Patience is key.I have applied vinyl decals. stripes, large format graphics in the past; on Windows, cars etc.I may not be a pro, but I am no novice either.Upon receiving; The first thing I noticed, however, were a few small creases and micro "crumples" in the first leading, 5" of the roll. I figured it was no big deal. After laying out the roll in the (75°) sun for 20 minutes - Car freshly washed, spray bottle and squeegee/credit card at hand, under shade, I laid out my stripe on the hood of my car. During the application I quickly noticed the vinyl stripe would not contour easily to the convex rise on my hood without a fair amount of persuasion. By the time I was near done; try as I might, I could not smooth/squeegee/burnish out the aforementioned creases/crumples. The results were near perfect except for the noticeable micro crumples. I had to remove/trash 28" of stripe because of these imperfections. I only had just enough to start again; From hood and down the front bumper. On my second attempt, I achieved perfect results...but not enough vinyl to continue down the rear of the car. I had to order a second roll.The product is fair quality for the money. Looks great.My advice; If you discover creases or micro crumples upon arrival I would return and request another roll.

the pictures for this product may look sketchy but sticker connection is a fast shipper and the value for money is the best you'll find online. the stripes are 3M, I loved the 7" so much on my first car (Chevy spark) that I got the 12" for my second car (Hyundai Kona). installation is not that difficult, you just need to watch YouTube videos and have a little patience. outstanding item.

These racing stripes turned out beautifully. You'll need 2 72" long rolls to cover most cars bumper to bumper if you do it right the first time. I did not do it right the first time, so I had to order one additional roll. I recommend using a spray bottle with soapy water and liberally spraying both surfaces before applying. If you don't do this, you will have a very difficult time applying the vinyls and you'll end up with lots of air bubbles.

Preperation is key! I failed to do preperation, so I just got it best I could and popped the air bubbles using a razor blade. It looks pretty good. Wish it was a little easier to install, but hey, for $20--I got professional looking racing stripes. Keep in mind, most shops charge hundreds of dollars to have these installed.

Had a problem with the first order, but seller quickly made it right, no questions asked. These stripes are durable, and they adhere well. Just make sure you use water with a drop of dish detergent to apply it! Clean the location you are installing the decal THOROUGHLY, and then SOAK the whole area with the water solution. Peel the backing off the decal, and spray the bejeesus out of the sticky portion of the sticker, as well. Lay the decal where it goes (if you used enough water, you should be able to slide the decal around), and then smooth it out with a squeege, holding the decal steady with the other hand. After you squeege ALL of the air/water out from under the decal, let it sit a few minutes, and then SLOWLY peel the backing paper off. Whola! You did it!Note: Depending on how good you are at stuff like this, it might take you a couple of tries.

Just received this in the mail today. while I can't speak on its durability. the width is good. Texture good. finish is good too. However, it's barely long enough to go across my roof (Ford focus hatchback 2015... not a big car) so I am having to order multiple to cover my car. Hopefully it all works out

extremely difficult to install....at least for me.complete loss of my money.....

Keep in mind there is only enough for hood & trunk, not enough for roof. I had a bunch of folds and bubbles in mine. I couldn't get it flat and rubbed the surface off it with a credit card, but that could have been installer error.
