as per phil's post. you'll be lucky to get someone to fit it who didn't cut it. one because they like a particular type of vinyl and guessing 2 because they can make more money out of you as dazza said take your time, mix up a small amount of soap liquid in a spray bottle with warm water and get a poly filler plastic applicator and wrap it in a piece of mf cloth or terry towel. have a hair dryer to hand and a good sharp scalpel or stanley knife.

make 110% sure that the surface you are to work on is clean. wash it, clay bar it and wash it again before starting to apply. above all take your time. don't rush it and you'll be fine

Where area are you from?

I fitted mine, and had no problems doing so, if you are close to me, come and have a look at my work and if you like it, ask me for a quote to do yours.
