Racing Stripes

I just purchased Racing Stripes for my car but installation is so expensive. I want to put them on by myself but am afraid to mess up. How do i put them on?

What kind of car is it? They can be easy to put on if your car is shaped right. Have you ever installed window tint? It is very similar to that. Sometimes it is worth paying for the professional installation because if it bubbles, or if they make a mistake, then they have to redo it for free. You don't really have that protection if you do it yourself. Post what kind of car you have and we'll go from there.
