Decal Placement
 
I made some Big 10 decals today to replace the ones that were removed when the PO had the truck painted. I'm just wondering if anyone has the placement off hand or if I could get some rough measurements before I stick 'em on. Or maybe a pic of one even so I could eyeball it....

Cool...an image search must've been too easy, cause I didn't think of it lol...

Found this one too, which is nice cause its identical to my truck except the wheels lol...

The location looks a bit lower than the one in your pic. Wonder how accurate they stuck em at the factory...close enough will probably do it ;)

Did the steppers get these decals too? Im fairly certain my truck is a big 10 but if it ever had the decals they were probably lost 3 paintjobs ago

You know how many trucks we've changed where the 4x4, Z71, STX, FX4 or SPORT decals are located? You'd be surprised. The decals are cheap and the owner thinks it'd look better in a slightly different location. Put it where YOU think it looks best. :)

Here's what I ended up with...

I lined them up with the edge of the tail light lenses...ended up higher like the first pic above lol...think it looks good tho.

My truck isn't really nice enough for the stickers but I'm not sure how long they'll last in the rain etc so kind of a test.
