Hope you haven't discovered the hard way brakes are very front baised and like to lock up fronts very quickly!

blisters on the sills are a problem upto 1997 cars then Dodge change the bonding insulation process, think I said before once the corrosion starts its difficult to stop

the stripes are a good days work to apply, I only use a specific material (cast 3M) which applies correctly in warm temperatures, dont try to do this job outside in Jan/feb. The previous attempt which failed the guys tried to stick on the wrong vinyl and it wouldnt bend around the compound curves
