^^ his was formed to the curves of the car. it wasn't across the ridges. it was between them. Take another look.

It's a vinyl, not a body kit. It can't make the car flat.

I realize that DTN, but you'll notice it doesn't interfere much with the curves, and I'm fairly certain his was straight when he put it on too.

it's ALL over the curves dude! once the vinyl was applied, it would be wrinkled, stretched and not straight in the slightest.

Hmm... I think it might be possible to do if you took it to a local copy center and had measurements made out. I could send you the high res version if you want.

it looks to me like his is lower with more of an angle to match the rear curve. just put the black portion in PDF format and it will become infinately scalable.

Actually DTN they're almost exactly in the same spot. Either way his still goes over curves with no problems...

As far as I understand it's just a matter of making sure you move smoothly in one direction with the vinyl, I mean obviously it bends, so it should flow fine. Same concept would be putting a piece of paper up against your car, if you smooth it down it will conform to the curves.
