Overlay help
Anyone around the central jersey area have experience installing taillight overlay? I am affraid to try it myself and 2 shops have told me that they will not do it because they can not guarantee it would look good. I have Bat's overlays!!
I did mine myself.
FYI -
Clean you surface first.
Make sure you have enough moisture to adjust the film(I used soapy water, in a old Windex bottle).
Keep a sharp knife, scissors or razor around because the overlays arent always an exact fit.
Keep a old credit card or something to push away air bubbles.
Follow the instructions and you should be fine. Its not too hard just something you have to keep adjusting and keep wet to adjust constantly.
Patience is VERY important on this. Go slow.

That really is a great DIY. GSquad would definitely admire this and take fully advantage of it. Once you read it, makes it seem like even a 10yr old can do it.
