   also you need to go help him with wing decal location   
Title: Re: NOW Another Sub-lime superbird convertible
Post by: hotrod98 on May 02, 2009, 10:28:56 AM
Those wing decals are a lot harder to apply on than it looks. You have to determine the vertical and horizontal centerlines of the decal to begin with.
Then you have to decide the location height, then figure out the left and right location with the edges of the wing being at angles and then make sure that the rotational orientation of the decal is correct. If you place it horizontal to the ground and the car is too high or too low in the back then it would be wrong and it's not horizontal to the quarter since the quarter is sloped so it's kind of a crap shoot getting them exactly right.
We need a couple of templates from an original wing. A correct original that is.  ;D

It doesn't take any more time to remove the stuff than it does to tape them up properly. That is when the stuff actually gets taped up.
Doesn't make sense to me.  :brickwall:

I was starting to wonder if anyone even caught what I had said.

Don't feel so bad Stuart. I took the 500 to a local cruise in the other day only to have my brakes go out on me on the drive home. Thats pretty interesting on a Saturday night driving the 20 miles home without any brakes at all. Which really made it fun to try to park it back in the garage. Had to put out some blocks to back up against so I could stop it before going through the wall.

Hey Stuart,
