Since we had great weather here today I took advantage of it to put on my vinyl stripes and the GT/A emblems. This is the first time I have ever applied vinyl. There is one issue I had on the passenger side...the top stripe wrinkled and I did not catch it until I took off the top paper. I tried my best to wet and squeege it out. That didn't work so I cut it and tried to overlap the two...that still did not turn out to my liking, but they are on and that is the only obvious flaw. Next I measured and marked holes to drill for the emblems.The driver side went flawlessly The passenger side however did not As I started drilling the first hole, it walked a bit! So now it meant I had to drill the second hole lower as well to keep it at least even. It isn't horrible being just below center eventhough fairly easy to tell. Overall I am still very pleased at the outcome and new look of my car.









The REAL GT/A

I like it! I have one of those badges on my dash just under the far right side vent.

It is off just a touch!
The right side is straight, but lower than I wanted it due to the drill bit walking on me on the first hole

No tape, drilled holes and used the supplied clips.
