Get another set of OEM decals. Honda prints them on an overlay that uses the body panels and trunk for OEM alignment. You could also get a Helms manual and it will show you that too.

Are you really going to be that **** about it being maybe a few cm off at most? Just look up a picture of an EM1 and eye ball it.

Why would I eyeball it when the information I need is out there? I don't like half assing things. Thanks for the bump up though

You're thinking of ITR decals.... EM1 decals aren't like this.


OP - I was concerned just like you, but once you get them and hold them up you'll realize there's actually very little room for error. The size of the panel is just barely bigger than the deacl. At most it will be off a few cms like someone said... trust me... you wont notice. Just take your time and make sure it's level and you'll do fine.

You can tell by looking at my car, there is literally just a few CMs between the decal and the door, and you want to start it right were the moulding starts rounding off at the end. Look carefully at the pic and you'll realize it's easier than you think.

Alright thank you guys for the info. I just put them on and they look OEM. So for anyone else who needs to do this, line up the top of the sticker with the bottom of the side molding. Next line up the 2 arrows that the sticker is printed on with the curve of the fender then your ready to go VTECing

2LEM1: I am tired of you thinking you know everything about EM1s, you do not. If you are not sure, do not say anything.
