View Full Version : Rear Trunk Stripe getting added today
jdwrt09 03-24-2011, 07:23 PM I'm adding the old style trunk stripe to my 09 Black Challenger today.
First you have to clean the area using Naptha. Instructions say 10 times to remove any and all traces of dirt, wax, etc. Naptha is on the far right...
That stuff on the left is for after-wards.http://www.challengerforumz.com/images/smilies/shakehead.gif

I have it taped off after I cut the decal for a first fit and to show where exactly I needed to clean.

jdwrt09 03-25-2011, 03:49 PM Ok, moving right along. I am done with the trunk stripe. http://www.challengerforumz.com/images/smilies/kult.gif
Just have to let it dry a bit then I can roll the ends around the edges and put it out in the Texas sun to cure a bit and dry up some of the small imperfections and that will be it. Then I will do a final clean up and post a few pics of the whole car.

Sorry about the wait. These decals are something you cannot rush. There are no second chances and no refunds from the manufacturer...:shakehead:
By the way, thanks for the Rep points.

jdwrt09 03-26-2011, 03:11 PM The Mopar nose emblem is a thick decal. I got it here:

I thought it looked familiar. I wonder if it would fit on my Magnum. I only see it in the Challenger side.
