Mine is in the backmost rear window on the drivers side, and I am trying to figure out where to put the other one. Problem is that it took like 6 hours for the letters to actually stick, and then the H in HOME got ripped, so now it looks like a lower case h.

Not Happy

I put them on durring a VERY dry 50 degree day last week.

Then the next morning it rained, rained all day. Since then they have bubbled, and begain to fall off...

Had to go to the car wash three days later, ( total sticker time on car five days) that was it for the stickers... Car wash got water under the sticker..

I would have prefierred to have them inside the car, however with tinted window it could be hard to read...

Will have to re - order...

They did not perform the way i hoped... Looks like sh*t now..

Re: Not Happy

Blue,

Not trying to be a smarta** or anything, but you did peel away the front covering of the sticker, didn't you? I just wanted to make sure. If you can send some dig. pics of what happened to them, I'll forward that on to the producer of the stickers. We don't need them bubbling off.

Re: Not Happy

I'm really satisfied with my stickers.
Next time you put your stickers on try what I did. I removed the rear layer, put the sticker on the window and left the front layer on for a couple of days. Then I just peeled it away easily w/o ripping any of the letters. My max went through several car washes since then and nothing is peeling away. Don't see any bubbles either.

That's what I thought too. Maybe he didn't remove the front layer of the sticker? I mean there's no way such small letters can get bubbles in them.

WOW, what a **** i am.. well not really, since their were not directions, and the backing of the sticker came off and the letters stuck great for the first day, i assumed that the front part stayed ON...

Well My appoligies to you JAMBO... I just went out into the parking lot at work and took off the top layer... The "T" almost came off, but i got it to stay and the rest looks GREAT...
Thanks for helping..

PS next time include instructions, for the idiots in the group
(LIKE ME),


Peace,

Count me an Idiot too.

Bluefish,
Yeah I did the same thing that you did. Put them on yesterday and didn't realize that the front also came off. I had bubbles galore this morning. I just finished the sticker install by removing the front piece also and it looks good. No bubbles.

No wonder you guys are having trouble with the stickers.

Anyway, I really like the stickers. Too bad I messed up one of them when I tried to put in on my rear driver side window. So, I trashed that one. That left with only one sticker. It would look weird if I had a sticker on one side of the car, but not the other. So, I put the sticker on the rear windshield. I aligned it in the middle. Just below where you see members that have the Ooglie antenna is placed. What do you guys think about that location? I haven't seen anyone put it there before.

middle of rear window placement

It is a pretty well balanced sticker so I imagine that having in the middle of the rear window would look tight. I never considered putting it there, I just followed everyone else's lead putting it on the rear window. I think that you may be the first to put it there Cumalot. Hook us up with a photo when you can.

Yeah, I think I'm the first one to put the sticker in the middle of the rear windshield. I think it looks pretty cool. I don't have a digicam, but I'll try to take a pic of it and let you guys check it out. Although, it might take awhile.

My sticker is placed to similiar to where Adidas Boy has his. Except that it's higher, right at the top. So, it looks similiar to the one in Adidas Boy's pic, except it's tinted, color is black, and IMO looks better.

Yeah, Mine is going to be tinted as soon as I get the money. . . I wanted to get tail lights first, so I just put up money for those, but hopefully by June mine will get tinted. . . I am just trying to figure out the right level for my color car. . . I have seen too many BE that have too dark of tint and it just looks ugly. I went with white stickers all around because of the intent of tinting the windows.
