Good work Chris! I would never have the ***** to tackle overlays. I hear they are a PITA as you said. Looks good man.

Props for DIY

Thanks Chris! Trust me. I had no idea I could do it. It was the first time installing something like this for me. I just told myself to stay relaxed and don't get frustrated quickly lol.

It did ttake way too long, but I was prepared after reading other peoples threads saying how hard it is. The reverse lights took literally 5-10 minutes each side. The outer tails took like and hour and a 1\2 each. Just getting all the curves and bubbles out. Still have some parts of it I am not happy with. I am going to try and work on it this weekend somemore to straighten some things out. hopefully it'll work. It was mainly a trial run to see if I would like it. Im wanting to get them painted for a cleaner look and figured this would give me a good idea if I liked them or not

Whenever you're modding and doing something you've never done before...that is the mind set you should be in or else you'll f it all up.

Good call on the overlays before paint to see if you like it or not.

Its coming along nicely

I hear ya. Taking your time will get you the results you are looking for. I am going to get another set from bluebat... just the outer tails though to do them over. It's a little rough on the edges and now that I know how to do them, it will go a lot smoother and look better

Thanks Chris! Rims on it's way and hopefully an aero kit soon!
