BATS Smoked GTR Head Lights on sedan - pics inside

Well i got some SMOKED GTR headlights from BlueBatMobile. These are SMOKED and the ones on his site are OPAQUE.

The INSTALL:
I was planning to get them done at a professional tint shop, but i got a little over anxious and went ahead and tried to do it myself. To my surprise, they werent as difficult as everyone thinks they are. In fact, I am one of the most impatient people out there, and am not very good with DIY's, but i was able to get these things on pretty easily with no bubbling. Anyways, installing these overlays yourself is VERY do-able (at least the headlights are). My tail lights havent come in yet, but i will post about those once i get them on.

The RESULT:
I actually wanted the OPAQUE ones, so i am going to take these off and order some OPAQUE overlays and put them on. I think they would look better being OPAQUE. Here are some pictures of them smoked (sorry, it was hard taking good pictures of them because of the reflections).







Next to come:
GTR tail lights and Opaque GTR Headlights

I think the overlays look fantastic. If I may ask what method, did you employ to lower your G, are you running; lowering springs or full coilovers and are you using camber arms?

thanks, i like them right now, but im gonna see how the opaque black looks. As for lowering, i just used unrevized 350z springs on my car. I didnt need to get new shocks since i have sports suspension, and no need for camber arms because it was only a 1" drop. In general, anything more than 1" will require camber kits.

Nice looking ride haven't seen you on the forum till now. Can you post up some more pixs of your car to show the drop with stock wheels and front lip. Since you are going with darker headlight overlays and the GTR tails maybe you should consider the bluebat sidemarker overlays as well.
