    This is the first video I’ve seen in which film solution has been applied. Very cool tip! How are the hood stickers holding up five years later?

      I live in a house with tons of trees and they drop on my Jeep every season and my stickers still look as good today as they did when I posted this video. Thanks for watching!

      Me too! '14 Unlimited Sport for me, though. What's your Jeep's name? Mine is Mudbug

    Helpful video! I really needed to know what a good length to go by was from the decal to the latch, and I went with your 4 1/2. Mine turned out great after I made sure to use less liquid. Thanks!

      Hey, i actually posted them off eBay. I am not sure they still have them. Etsy has a few good ones to choose from. I would check there.

    I'm watching several of these videos before I change the RUBICON hood lettering on ours tomorrow. I guess misting is one way to apply new decals, although I do not agree with creating a fake Rubicon out of a Sahara. We have owned both models.

    • @HowToWithJames
      @HowToWithJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Are you saying my Rubicon is fake?

    • @RoadiJeff
      @RoadiJeff 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I may have misunderstood a comment you made to someone else who questioned whether your Jeep is actually a Rubicon from the factory or something else that's disguised as one with Rubicon decals on the hood.

    • @HowToWithJames
      @HowToWithJames  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For some reason after publishing this video people question whether my jeep is really a Rubicon based solely on outside parts. My jeep used to have the white lettering Rubicon on the hood and the previous owner removed it. Not sure why but i decided to go back with something cooler. Good luck with whatever you decide!

    Great video. It's been a year and a half... how's your decal holding up? I'm worried about doing this because of high pressure car washes, weather, and that sort of thing.

    • @HowToWithJames
      @HowToWithJames  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thanks! Still doing fine. My jeep has been parked in the driveway outside all year under rain and trees and needs a wash right now but the sticker still looks as good as when I put it on.

    whats the name of the liquid u put in on the decal

    • @HowToWithJames
      @HowToWithJames  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Jaime Esquivel it's called "window film application solution" by Gila. I had this left over from when I put window film on a glass door. This came with the window film and I don't think it is sold separately. This is why I put a recipe in the video.

      etsy online is where I just ordered mine from. I was able to get Rubicon letters, Wrangler Unlimited and a trail rated badge all from them. Looks great too. If you are switching up the looks of your Jeep, I recommend giving them a look. Very reasonably priced as well.

    rubicons come with painted fender flares and different wheels also steel bumper what are you doing

      I am not sure why a "how to" video for putting a sticker on your Jeep hood has turned into defending my Jeep wrangler Rubicon but here is what you can find on the jeep wrangler wiki page about 2010 Rubicon's.
      The Rubicon package is the dedicated "Offroad" package. Standard components of the Rubicon package include front and rear next generation Dana 44 axles with electric lockers, Rock-Trac four-wheel drive with 4:1 transfer case, rock rails, 32-spline rear axle with an 8.8-inch ring gear, 4.10 axle gearing, electric releasing sway bar, "Yes Essentials" seats (2007-08), 7-speaker infinity sound system, and any other available option can be added.
      Linked here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeep_Wrangler
      Notice it says nothing about the fender flares which I believe the painted are standard on the Sahara. It also says nothing about the bumpers. If you do a quick search on the web you will see those wheels I have are the same wheels on other Rubicons not that it matters. But it does say one key thing at the bottom. "and any other available option can be added" They should also mention can be removed because I know for the right price my dealership will put anything I want on a jeep wrangler to get it sold.
      So to answer your last question "what are you doing". I am putting the Rubicon stickers on my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon hood because the previous owner removed them and on my hood before I put these stickers back you could see the sun faded outline of the previous Rubicon stickers. I guess some people don't like the stickers and think they are tacky. I like them so I put back better ones.

      dont listen to them @how to, they are just a bunch of keyboard online wannabe jeep owners. I got my stickers today thats how I ended on this video, mine its a sahara with upgraded diffs and lockers. I think its just looks cool with the rubicon letters. who cares if its a rubicon a sahara or the X model ! man !! good video !!

    You guys are kidding right? That has to be the longest version of an install I’ve ever seen. And an hour?! I can install the rubicon decal in about 2 minutes flat and drive away. Dry with no water or whatever your recipe was.

      And they’re all individual letters… I mean, glad it worked out, but dang
