Crappy weather here too. For what it's worth, try to do them in at least 60 degree temp. Premask will come off much easier without wanting to pull the graphic up.

Although looking again at your pic of the graphics, they appear not to have a premask. Hmmm, I have come across some companies doing kits without premask lately. Actually reinstalled a Shelby Mustang racing stripe recently for the local Ford dealership that came without. Be careful with your squegee not to scratch the vinyl. If you don't have a friction sleeve for your squegee, wrap a paper towel around it and keep it free of dust and stuff that would drag across the graphic like sand paper when installing. Sorry for rambling but I am very anal when doing graphic installs.

Any step in the process can ruin the step. Therefore ruining the entire job. When I sell graphics kits (like my renegade) I always send two of everything at the same price to cover goof ups. Also, it is almost impossible not to scratch the vinyl without masking paper. I wouldn't want to try it especially if it's a first time install!?!?

Those will look great on your white Jeep. I actually considered those same stripes when I was contemplating a retro look.

DARB, we need to talk sometime! PM me a phone #. I'd be interested in finding out more about exactly what you do and or sell. I am more of a mobile installer catering to car dealers and collision shops. Operating since 1986 here.
