can't find the thread now, but i saw a discussion on applying the side decals. so that the board members can benefit from my experience, i'll related the following. I ended up paying a long time friend and body shop owner to do the application. his name is fred overholt and he runs a body shop called country collision in van buren ohio -- northwest ohio near I-75. he is the best. a true artist and perfectionist. he painted a 73 911S for me years ago and it was outstanding. anyway, he uses a prodouct called "easy on" to apply the decals. i think it performs the same function as the soapy water i saw discussed elsewhere but, according to fred, works much better. it dries to nothing. no residue. that can be hastened with a heat gun. the decals were coated with easy on, applied to the car, squeegied out and cut in the appropriated places.
