I can't belive someone did that freehand... had to be done with a template or something, right?

You guys are so naive! Those are stickers. Ted921 from is300.net sells them for 17 bucks a set, i just got mines yesterday.

Yeah SuperJoe got the stickers from Ted. I was there when he installed it on Sunday.

I know for sure that the sticker deal is closed now.
