Anyone with a stepside, look at your "E" and see if the fingers are rounded or squared.
See pics below. The p/n I ordered said "67-72"

Sounds like a good plan, but
3M blue 1'' masking tape might be cheaper, and not involve trans-Pacific container ships. Tape would be easier to scrape off of the undercolor, too.
Blue masking is the low tack tape. Tracing out your cut line with an Exacto knife gives a sharper line than a decal.
