HMT decal install how-to *write up* *PICS BACK UP!*
 
o.k., i know many of you have got or are waiting on hmt decals, now the only question is, how do i install it? well, i installed mine this weekend and documented it to help you guys out. enjoy.


it all starts with a dream............
then after waiting about 3 mos., you should recieve a little pacage like this from onyx.....

so, you're going to want to open the package and check the contents, along with the decal, other tools needed will be: windex (generic), a paper towel (or news paper), your actual decal, and, if you're south of virginia, a good ol' 'peeeeeeeeeeench' of some skoal.

o.k., before you start anything, you need to figure out where you want it, this is detrimental to your status at hmt, i've seen people get banned for putting their decal in the wrong place. the preferred location is in the lower left corner of your rear side window, on the black part of the window, NO HIGHER! if you have a sedan, eat a dick, you're fucked.

you're then going to want to prep the surface by cleaning it with the windex that you should already have handy.

next, you want to carefully pull the backing off the decal and get it ready to install. this can be a bit confusing, but just remember, you're half way done (don't peel the individual letters off, just one side of the tape ;))......

o.k., now you're going to place the sticker as straight as possible in the desired location that should have already been cleaned........

after rubbing/pressing it religiously as to ensure it stays on 43vAr, you carefully pull the front tape off of the sticker.........

now, you are completely finished, and this is what it should look like. if you messed it up somehow, don't tell anyone, just make another donation, and secretly contact onxy and tell him you need another one, then wait 3 more mos. and try again.....

and finally, take her out for a test drive. i suggest not putting your decal on until you actually have a 'Home Made Turbo', the birds call you out if you're faking the funk and hate all over your car..........

the end, i hope this is helpful to others who may be looking at their decal every day wondering "i wish i knew how to install this thing".

You lose 4 pimp points. I suggest getting a bright red glossy SHIRT. Mayhaps even a pink one. ;)

Wow, thanks for the write-up. In the 3 months I was waiting for my sticker I did several google searches and found nothing on how to install my sticker. Thia really helped. :)

I really did feel a power increase. Not so much on the low end, but more on the top end. It realy helps. :)
