    I bought 80s 4runner graphics an dont feel comfortable applying them myself. Do I nee to take to a paint shop, detailer, maybe window tinters. Looking for recommendations on best, cheapest option?

    I'm curious about this as well because my 88 has had a repaint and no longer has decals.

    I recently did some decal work myself, it's easier than you'd think. Spraying the paint and the sticky side of the decals with soapy water means you can move and lift it as much as you need, then sqeezing the water out with a credit card in combination with a hair dryer will set them in place

    If you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself, my first thought would go to a tint shop. My tint guys used to do decals too, it's a similar process
