Then remove the letter, and use a razor blade to position the letter on as perfect as you can and press it on with your fingers. Just lightly stick the letter at the furthest edge of the blade so you can easily remove it from the blade when you stick it on. If the letter is not on right, you can remove it and re-apply. The razor blade works great for this as you can use the blade to carefully lift up the edge and remove.


Lookin' real nice

Here are my Nismo wheels with Mike's lettering. My wheels aren't very clean, but you can see what the vinyl lettering does for them.
