Each kit includes both the driver-side and passenger-side decals. They are die-cut single-color transfer decals, so the graphic transfers cleanly onto your panels with no background.
For a graphic this size, the wet application method works best, and we recommend two people on the larger pieces so the decal lines up straight and goes on without bubbles. See our installation instructions for the full walkthrough.
Yes. These are die-cut vinyl decals, and when they are installed and removed correctly they come off safely without harming your paint.
Each decal is cut from durable single-color vinyl that is weatherproof and fade-resistant, so it holds its color through sun, rain, and the trail.
Crafted from premium Oracal 651 intermediate calendared vinyl, this vinyl transfer decal is designed for long-lasting outdoor durability and a clean, painted-on appearance once applied. Precision cut for crisp detail and smooth lines, each decal is made to order and includes professional-grade transfer tape for easier installation. Choose from 63 vibrant color options, including standard gloss finishes, matte Black and matte White, plus eye-catching metallic finishes like Silver Metallic, Rose Gold Metallic, Gold Metallic, and Copper Metallic to perfectly match your style.
Depending on the size and complexity of the decal, we use either RTape 4078 RLA or ORATAPE HT55 transfer tape to help ensure clean transfer and accurate application.
Oracal 651 vinyl is known for its durability, vibrant color selection, and clean professional finish, making it a popular choice for vehicle graphics, windows, laptops, tumblers, and more. Unlike printed stickers, transfer decals have no background, giving the design a sleek, painted-on look that blends seamlessly with your surface. With strong adhesive performance and weather-resistant construction, these decals are built to handle sun, rain, and everyday use while maintaining their bold appearance over time.
Required Tools:
Retractable razor blade, squeegee, tape measure or ruler, and a spray bottle filled with isopropyl alcohol.
Optional:
For easier positioning during installation, lightly mist both the application surface and adhesive side of the decal with water. This reduces the initial tack, allowing more flexibility during placement, but will increase drying time. Allow at least 10 minutes of drying time before checking adhesion and removing the transfer tape.
Surface Preparation:
All surfaces should be considered dirty and must be thoroughly cleaned before installation. Painted metal surfaces should be cleaned using an automotive detergent. Wipe the surface dry using a clean, lint-free cloth to ensure proper adhesion.
Step 1: Tape in Place
Position the decal and align it using a nearby horizontal line or reference point. Use a level if necessary to ensure the decal is straight and even. Once aligned, place masking tape on the corners to temporarily hold it in place. Apply a strip of masking tape across the top edge of the decal to create a hinge for easier application.
Step 2: Remove the Backing Paper
Carefully hinge the decal upward using the masking tape hinge. Slowly peel the backing paper away from one corner, working gradually across the decal until the backing is fully removed. Hold the decal taut and avoid allowing the adhesive side to touch the surface prematurely.
Step 3: Apply the Decal
Using a squeegee, begin at the center of the decal and work outward using firm, smooth strokes. Apply even pressure to push air outward and ensure proper adhesion to the surface. Continue working across the entire decal until all sections are securely applied. Go over the decal once more with the squeegee to ensure full contact.
Step 4: Remove Transfer Tape and Trim if Necessary
Slowly remove the transfer tape by pulling it back flat against the surface. Watch carefully to ensure the vinyl remains properly adhered during removal. If needed, use a retractable razor blade to carefully trim around door seams or edges and tuck excess vinyl inward for a clean finish.
Application Tip:
If small air bubbles appear, use the tip of an X-Acto knife or pin to gently release the trapped air. Smooth the vinyl down carefully using your finger or squeegee.
Every decal is made to order in the USA, using commercial-grade vinyl-cutting and finishing equipment for precise detail and professional quality. We use industry-trusted machines from Summa, Graphtec, and Mefu, while final preparation and quality control are carefully completed by hand.
Because each decal is custom-produced, please allow 7–14 business days for production before shipping. Once your order ships, tracking information will be sent automatically.
Decals bond best to clean, smooth, non-porous surfaces like glass, smooth painted metal, and finished plastic. Rough, textured, or porous surfaces do not give the adhesive enough contact to hold well, so they are not a good fit.
It is cut from Oracal 651 outdoor vinyl, rated for up to 6 years outdoors with proper installation. Real-world life depends on sun, climate, and wear, but it is built to handle daily weather and regular car washes.
Yes. Give it about 48 to 72 hours after installation so the adhesive fully cures, then hand washing or a standard automatic car wash is fine. Just avoid aiming a pressure washer straight at the edges.
No. It applies over factory paint and clear coat and removes cleanly without harming the finish. To take it off, warm it gently with a hair dryer and peel slowly from one edge. Any leftover adhesive wipes off with mild soapy water.
No. Transfer decals are made for a single application. Peeling one off stretches the vinyl and spends the adhesive, so it is worth planning your placement before you apply.
Please double-check your selections before checkout. Decals are made to order, so once production starts we often cannot make changes. If you catch something right away, email us as soon as possible and we will do our best to help.
