I don't but graphics aren't so hard to install. If you warm them up first (hairdryer / heatgun...be careful) they will be real soft and easy to work with. You probably know that already.

I just got done doing two sets of shroud graphics this winter. I know this sounds strange but I used windex. Sprayed it on the graphic as well as on the plastic. Then put decal on. The liquid allows you to "float" and move around the graphic. I then started forming all the hard corners downs. Basically, get the graphic to start bending. Then I removed the graphic from the plastic. Dried the plastic but the graphic was still damp. Then put it back on and quickly adjusted it. All four shrouds came out perfect. After a few hours, the windex completely evaporates and the graphics stays perfectly stuck.
Last year, I used water in a spray bottle. Worked pretty good but I think the windex evaporated quicker.
Read about this at thumper talk. I know its strange but it works real good.

Hmmm...so you say just windex the sticky backside of the graphic, windex the plastic, float it in place, squeegie and let dry?
And the graphis will hold as if you put it on there dry?
Never heard that...cool
