    Van looks great love the colour combo, unfortunately I just had my second set put on yesterday and will be ripping them of today, not happy with the job, butted heads with the sign writer who came highly reccommended. Not sure I can stand the stress or want to out lay money for a third set, my advice sit down with your sign writer etc and show him pictures etc of exactly where you want them, dont just rely on giving them the intruction booklet as the guy that did my had a different interpretation and thought the stripes on the front guard look good about 30-40 mm above the body line because he was following the instructions that the tip finishes at the top of the indicator surround, my panel beater who fitted the first set nailed them but unfortunately the rear one blistered and a bit of dirt etc under the side ones which you probably get from a panel shop. The fact that the sign writer ingnored the bit about the top stripe only being half exposed around the lock opening and him going an extra 10mm higher had little to do with over all finish.

    That sounds to be beyond frustrating.... Hope it works out one way or the other.
