My 914 has painted sail panels and I would like to install the vinyl. Need some advice on where to purchase. I found it on a few websites but don't want some cheap stuff. Also anyone recommend a adhesive?

I am in the middle of this exact job as we speak. I used the 3M "90" product and was disillusioned. Did the top of the roll bar first with no problem- looks great. Went to do the driver side sail panel and the spray just bubbled up like crazy. Went to apply the vinyl and all kinds of imperfections appeared through the vinyl. Had to remove it, and in the process it ruined the material. Had to order another piece of vinyl from Mikey (actually Scott). When it gets here, I am going to use good ol' reliable contact cement to do the side panels and be done with it!
