I'm about to order overlays.. thoughts?
Keep in mind I have a Black '05, what do you think about this "scheme"?

IMO leave the 3rd brake light if your going for the GTR.. you'll have some red to match the circles on your tails
as for the front.. personally i'd rather save all that money and get a black housing and keep the clears.. this way your clears will match your strip and keep the black look.. if not then get the lightest GTR for the front head light and keep the side markers clear (assuming you have clear corners)
blacking out everything = x.x... IMO
also keep in mind that the overlays are a little brownish compaired to shiny black paint at certain times of the day

GTR Tails with the 3rd brake overlay looks good. here is mine. As for the front I happen to like the way clear corners look vs the smoked corners and I am just not feeing any overlay on the healight besides eyelids. IMO I would keep the front stock but get GTR tails and the 3rd brake light... Its what I did

go with the 6/10 markers if you have stock orange ones....the 3/10 might be too light. I have the 6/10 on my car and sometimes in the light you can see the "orangeness" coming thru.....if you have clear markers, the 3/10s might be okay...I'd say go with the full smoke tails, but that's just me...not feeling the GTR rears...as for the headlamps, I bought a pair of GTR overlays, but still haven't decided if I will install them....cant help you there if I cant even help myself....let us know what you decide....
