Question is though, how would these be applied straight, seeing as how our trucks have those wierd rear fenders.....

usually they're applied wet. You Spray some alcohol on the surface and apply the design. You use this squeegey-like object to flatten it out while still on the application paper, when it's completely flat, you remove the paper stuff and it comes off clean. I like the mopar stuff, though i'm not a big fan of the side stripes myself.

Dont ever put ALCAHOL ON THE GRAPHIC ITSELF... Just use it to clean the vehicle, then use a soapy/water solution to put on the decal if you do it wet... Else do it dry!

i always put it on the graphic ;). I also drink it afterwards, it makes me see cool things in the air. I didn't make it clear that you dont put it on the graphic, the surface...you know wher ei got that from, putting alcohol on the surface? some guys at another decal shop I went to a long time back (havent been since) told me to spray the surface the decal was going on with alcohol and then put the decal on...This also was a different kind of decal, made of thicker material, was transparent, the blue-tint film that used to be on my headlights. I never could get it right, they handed me a knife, squeegy, and a roll of the material ad said good luck, because they didn't want to cut out the material themselves...oh well. Anywho, any decals I design and buy I always put on dry myself, Of course they arent this big.
