That doesn't matter. All our cars were stock at one point. Don't be scirrrrrrd lol. You will like your decal. Just wipe down with alcohol first for a good cleaning and you will have years of dome

^^Will do, instructions say to use trim adhesive glue to help them stick better, did others do this?? I wash my car sometimes in car wash spray booths so I'm thinking I should. If the decal were to come off would that adhesive come off easy?

When I put mine on, I actually used a couple of dabs of superglue on the backs of the letters. I never had a problem with them coming off.

Super glue forms a chemical bond that is caustic to paint. You don't want to be in a situation where you lose a letter or decide to remove them for whatever reason and you've now fuxored the paint below. (right Austin? )

I was thinking that because it worked so well with the caliper covers and is clear and is silicone base, it'll be completely removable when done. Try using this stuff...I haven't done it, but I'm positive it's the right stuff to use. You can make a puddle (yeah, buddy!) on anything...then use a toothpick to apply only a little...remember, you presse it against the car and even a little excess will squeeze out everywhere...you just want enough to grab the letter and paint.

i've found that 3M emblem adhesive (a small amount) will go a long way with these. it also will not harm your paint if you decide to remove them at a later date. it can be found at your local auto parts store/wal mart/ home depot/etc

^like rockstar said, just get a toothpick and put on a small amount on each letters spot on the car. you don't need a ton, just enough to keep it on. post pics when you're done!

Tyler, if you have nothing nice to say. Swim in icy water and eat frozen herring.

John, I wouldn't sweat it, it might be the angle of the silver in relation to how the light is hitting it. Car is looking good...
