cool but some of us don't want to pay these installers a ridiculous amount of money if we can do it ourselves.

this is probably the third time i've asked about the installation guide and have yet to see any response... does it even exist?

how's this video for installation? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnZSwlR4To4"]Subaru WRX STI Hatch Red Out Tail Light Vinyl Overlay Install : Premium Auto Styling - YouTube[/ame]

are all vinyl materials the same?

what does the vinyl look like unused? trying to get an idea of how one would install it with the corners involved.

also do you provide a squeegee as well, if not what's a good alternative to use?

use a credit card wrapped in micro fiber. Install techniques are pretty much the same, soap and water, and a hairdryer or heatgun for the curved sections.
