Perfected the decal

Thanks to KLC for the print out.

I had to work with this for ever to get it right

4.0L SOHC modified version on bottom. If you don't know what it is the S is not broken

I had a lot of people say they would buy hood decals if the S wasn't broken

Some don't like the broken S

Oh no, I don't cut the hood decals, just the emblem decals. For some reason my machine makes the hood decals wavy so I don't do them.

These were a PITA to make.

The print out that KLC mailed me was perfect so of course the decal should come out perfect after I scan it. Not at all.

Finally after I think 2 weeks I got it right. I can make them now not problem

seed60 still trying to find a tangerine orange with sparkle like the EDGE bed decal.

I might be interested in the EDGE Bed Decals. Maybe a light grey/silver? Would be nice with a reflective coating?

YEAH, but some people DON'T respond to emails and PM's. Been looking for new set for quite some time. Seems the two members I've talked to aren't selling anymore??

I'm a graphic designer and could have done that to the file for ya in 1 minute. Then you could have sent that to a local vinyl printer and had them created...
