Vinyl graphics opinions

I was thinking about getting this Vinyl Graphic Set from ebay. I think it looks awsome!!!! I want to know if any of you have had any experiences with vinyl graphics? The good the bad and the ugly please.

Thats pretty cool. I was wondering if someone made Racing stripes for the HHR. Hope that works out.

I think it looks pretty tight... someone with actual pics of this kit should chime in.

I had a local sign maker make me a vinyl decal with hands and hhr letters for my 07 and I have had a couple of people think its real paint. it is just adhesive on the back of the vinyl and as long as its around 70 degrees it sticks and it took me about 2 hours to complete. The hardest part was folowing the seam of the body to make it straight. I want to add a little more. So, I have checked Twistedchrome on line and Streamlinedesgin for more ideas. Sorry I still have not mastered downloading pictures on this website.

This is only the application of the lower graphics. Not difficult to apply if you follow the instructions and take your time. Make sure paint is totally free of wax etc. Hope this helps.

Wow thanks guys. It looks like an overall positive response on these. I really only want the Rally Stripes and probably won't put on the sides. My HHR is black so I was thinking either silver #1 choice or dark grey #2 choice. I was thinking the silver would match the wheels. Anyway, I'm getting them since everyone seems to agree that they are good and nobody has reported any issues with them :) Thanks again!
