Top job Tim and Chris, really good looking stuff. You have to aadmit though, the car is 3/4 the beauty...

Out of interest, for those about to apply, make sure your window area is clean (duh) and dry preferably after a full wash of the car, then simply position it where you want before removing the backing paper to ensure you're happy with the spot. Perhaps mark it with a finger print or something, that can be very easily wiped off after.

Then simply use your nails to unstick the end bits that are wrapped around the back to hold the sticker on, and peel off the entire backing sheet. I did this so I could hold the entire sticker then and just apply it as is, without fuss. Keep the backing sheet however, as once you have positioned the sticker (CAUTION - SUPER DUPER STICKY!!!) then you can use the backing sheet to slide over the front cover sheet and firmly press down all the individual letters. The idea is, it's stuck to the window much more strongly than the facing sheet, which means you can remove the face sheet more easily. Just ensure you have run over each individual letter firmly including the fullstop, before removing the face sheet.

Then hey presto, you're done!!

I just got home and have my stickers here, so I'll have a go getting some on the car as soon as this rain goes away.

Tim!

Looking good there Matt, you did an excellent job positioning those stickers.

BTW, is that white road paint still visable from when you went through those roadworks? :(

The rear windscreen is a bugger, it's curved and the sticker isn't... very tricky....

As for hte road paint, yes it's still highly visible, especially in the wheels arches and under the side rails under the doors... might get around to it one day... mainly waiting for the cash to get my mouldings sprayed, when I do that I'll get the whole car fixed up for whatever it's worth (if it isn't too dear)

Well congratulations on a job well done on the back windscreen then mate, sounds very tricky to me.

Oh well, at least that paint wasn't obvious in those pics, must still **** you off each time you see it I'll bet :(

Ok...got my stickers in the mail, gave the Focus a was yesterday (only for it to rain nearly all day today) and put the eurofordclub.com stickers on.

Snuck up the road to this nice little spot I have found for some night time pics and here are some of the pics I took....NOTE: I havent seen anyone with their eurofordclub.com stickers in the same rear position so I am claiming patent on it, anyone else uses that position can pay me a dollar.. : :

more pics can be found at
