Default does this look straight to you?

Got my bed stripes and installed the drivers side... then my wife came along and told me it's crooked.. i lined it up with the tail light and the line that goes down from there.. i'm needing some opinions.. leave it.. or tear it off?.. at this point it won't hurt my feelings either way.. so what do you think?

It looks straight with the tail light to me. I have put these on before and the lines of the bed side can make it look crooked...

Looks fine, sure isn't anything I would notice in a passing glance. Since that is all most will give it, I would say its good.

Looks straight to the taillights. Its just not perpendicular to the bed rail. I think it looks good the way it is and you should keep them.

Default RE: does this look straight to you?

thanks for the opinions guys.. it helped a bunch... i went out and installed the passenger side the same way..i sprayed the paper a lot more this time and squeegied the heck out of it before removing the application paper.. i didnt get as many air bubbles to pop.. but i still have some work to do in that department..

oh yeah.. and kev.. the wife said "tell that guy to kiss my @$$".. lol .. she just doesnt understand that if its purp-un-dick-u-ler to the bed.. its going to look really crooked with the only straight line that is parallel to it.. the tail light.. ... women[:-]

I split the difference with mine. It's halfway between purp-un-dick-u-ler to the bed and parallel to the taillight. First I tried making the big C level across the top and it was more effed up.
Yours looks fine. Welcome to the club.

Damn picture won't postnow it did WTF?
