Surface Cleaning
The vehicle surface must be perfectly clean before installation.
Ensure the target area is:
-
Clean and Dry: Free from moisture.
-
Smooth and Non-Porous to promote good decal adhesion.
-
Contaminant-Free: Completely free of oil, wax, ceramic coatings, grease or any other cleaning residues.
-
For newly painted vehicles, please allow at least 5 weeks for the paint to cure & outgas before applying any graphics

Installation
⚠IMPORTANT - Please read carefully through this entire section before installing any graphics.
Material Layers
To ensure a perfect finish, our graphics are ‘sandwiched’ between two protective layers. The base release liner protects the adhesive until you are ready to apply, while the top transfer tape keeps the cast vinyl stable during installation. Please follow our guide to ensure you are removing the correct layer at the correct stage of the process.
Positioning and Alignment
Our graphics have been designed to take the guesswork out of placement onto the vehicle. We do this by perforation cutting our designs to key datum points featured on the original bodywork. These can be in the form of body creases, shut lines, trim edges or emblems. We also include outer tabs with peelable backings to help with provisional placement. In this section we’ll provide guidance on how to align each graphic with the existing bodywork.
S1 - Decklid/Bumper Motif - Rear
-
Gently detach the S1 graphic from the main sheet by following the perforated line.
-
Without removing any of the release backing, loosely place the graphic on the rear bumper/decklid to familiarise yourself with the general placement.
-
Remove the release liner backing from the large and small outer tabs. Do not remove the backing from the main graphic


-
Using the outer tabs, tack the graphic onto the bumper. Use the images below for guidance on alignment.


for 987.2
for 981

for 718 & SRS
⚠ ASSESS - Check over the positioning to ensure good alignment with the relevant bumper/decklid features. Tune placement with the outer tabs if needed.
-
With the outer tabs acting as hinges, Lift the main graphic up and back on itself to gain access to the release liner. Make sure the outer tabs remain attached to the car to prevent misalignment

-
Peel away the release liner from the graphic.

-
Unfold the graphic to its original position, but do not let it touch the bodywork.
-
Using the supplied application squeegee, gently apply the graphic to the bumper/decklid. Work in overlapping horizontal strokes, starting from the outer tabs and working outwards
⚠Maintain Tension - Keep the graphic taut and slightly elevated with your free hand, letting the squeegee pull the vinyl down onto the surface.



L1 & R1 - Door Motifs (complete one side at a time)
-
Gently detach the L1 & R1 graphics from the main sheet by following the perforated line.
-
without removing any of the release backing loosely place the graphics onto the door to familiarise yourself with the general placement and to confirm you have each side correctly identified.
-
Remove the release liner backing from the large and small outer tabs. Do not remove the backing from the main graphic.

-
Using the outer tabs, tack the graphic onto the forward bottom corner of the door.
⚠ ASSESS - Check over the positioning to ensure good alignment with the relevant shutlines and body features.
Tune placement with the outer tabs if needed.
-
With the outer tabs acting as hinges, Lift the graphic up and back on itself to gain access to the release liner. Make sure the outer tabs remain attached to the car to prevent misalignment



-
Peel the release liner away from the graphic
-
unfold the graphic to its original position, but do not let it touch the bodywork.
-
Using the supplied application squeegee, gently bond the graphic to the door. Work in overlapping horizontal strokes, starting from the outer tabs and working outwards
⚠Maintain Tension - Keep the graphic taut and slightly elevated with your free hand, letting the squeegee pull the vinyl down onto the surface.

I1 - Interior Motif
-
without removing any of the release backing loosely place the graphics onto the interior trim to familiarise yourself with the general placement.
-
use the images below for guidance on alignment

for 987.2

for 981/718/SRS

-
Remove the whole release liner from the graphic

-
Loosely tack the graphic in place referencing the guide images above for placement.

-
Working from left to right, use the application squeegee to secure the graphic in place.
Finishing up
-
Carefully peel and discard of the top transfer tape of all applied graphics. For best results, pull the tape back slowly at a sharp 180° angle (keeping it flat against the hood).
⚠ Troubleshooting - If any part of the graphic starts to lift with the transfer tape, stop, lay it back down, and reapply more pressure with the squeegee.

-
With the transfer tape removed, if you notice any bubbles in the graphic, apply gentle heat and use the the application squeegee to work them out to the closest edge.
-
To ensure a permanent, long-lasting bond, we recommend post-heating the entire graphic. Using a heat gun, evenly heat the surface of the vinyl to 90°C. This process ‘sets’ the adhesive and the vinyl, preventing any lifting or shrinking over time
