Re: Were to put my new stickers

did a search and found this for you.

85-87

The door decals are located 2-5/8" from the top of the door ground effects to the bottom of the letters. On the drivers door the bottom corner of the I should be 5-3/4" from the front edge of the door when measured in a straight line at the bottom of the letters. On the passenger side the top corner of the Z should be 6-1/2" from the edge of the door when measured in a straight line at the top of the letters.

88-90

Use same measurements, reversed from the rear of the door.

I used a crayon to lay out the lines giving myself an 1/8" margin and eyeballed it.

Hope this helps.

Why would you put OEM replica decals on a "cheap paint" ? :/
Seems like a waste...
Unless they're those $30 ones from eBay..

Re: Were to put my new stickers

Save yourself the $2-400, and wait to put them on when you have a GOOD paint applied. (OEM/Factory emblem replicas cost $2-400!!)
Why apply them to a paint that'll start showing oxidation and possible clear
Coat peeling in a year or two?...buy the cheap $30 emblems for your cheap paintjob for the time being...To anyone that questions their authenticity - tell them they're temporary. You don't want a "new" paint job to show deterioration within a year or two and have the brand new OEM like emblems that'll have to be taken off to repaint the car..
