Got my new decals... Now what?
I got my new VeloGraphic decals for my Paramount today and I'm afraid to attempt applying them myself. I just know I'm going to ruin them. Does anyone know if there is someone in the Northern California area who can apply them for me? (Someone who's done it before.) I'd be willing to pay them for their trouble.

Awww, now I feel bad. The application tips sheet wasn't any help? It's really not all that difficult. C'mon -- one of you guys in the Sacramento area go help her out, eh?

VeloLisa - I understand the slight bit of intimidation. When I put the decals on my Barracuda Mk.I after spending 6 weeks painting it I was completely afraid of messing not only the decals up but the paint I had labored over as well. All in all however with a lot of patience and a spare set of eyeballs on the task at hand the job went well. I did manage to get the downtube decals situated a little low on the tube to the true mid-line though. 
Good luck with the application and I'm sure you can get someone out your way to at least give a helping hand.
