Because our lettering was so long My Wife and I decided to cut it at an angle between the Happy and Ours. This made the install easier than We expected. We used the tape it in place method and then do 1, 1/2 of each piece at a time length ways. The best advice I can give is the old measure twice stick once, I our case it was measure move, it slightly, re-measure, repeat until we were both happy. But every body that has seen it wants to know where we got it and I am happy to tell them.
