X2....do the top/center stripe first. Measure to the center of your roof, mark with a small piece of tape. Also mark your stripe center (on the carrier paper). Tape one side of the stripe carrier paper down with masking tape. Then tape the side stripes to the center stripe (again, tape the carrier paper) in the correct spacing. This will allow you to align the stripe correctly over the wheel wells. When you have it placed correctly, tape down the one side of the center stripe in the final location and remove the side stripes. Now you have it in the correct location ready to install.Thunderstruck440 wrote: I believe the stripe I bought came as a 3-piece.
For a closer alignment, you can use a tape measure to check how low the stripe is on the wheel openings for the sides. For the top, you can measure to the back window to the stripe. Masking tape is a big help to make sure your angles are right.
I did the top first, how well you center it will give the results of the sides.
The paper over the stripe should stay on, that will protect the edges while you squeegee and keep all the individual squares together. Just be sure to use lots of that soapy water!
I use glass cleaner in a spray bottle instead of soapy water. Either way works.
