Installing bats headlight and taillight overlays

I dont see any DIY for this. Do you guys install them yourselves or do you bring it to a shop to get it done. The shop near me wans $120 to install my head and taillight overlays and i think thats too much. I rather do it myself but how hard is it since its a curved surface?

Its not that hard at all. I did my tails myself and to be honest with you take the 10 extra minutes and remove the taillights because that will probly save you and hour. If you use soap with water its pretty easy just that its hard to get on top by the trunk because it curves down. So I just ended up wipeing it down and just sort of stretch it on. Four hand are better then two. The headlights I didn't do yet but I will in like spring. By the way that's pretty cheap because the guy I took it too wanted 160 for the tails

"Patience" is always the key to a good install. I'd say 98% of my customers install themselves. Most succeed. However, there are times when they crew up one piece or the whole set, in that case, I always offer a doscount on additional pieces or sets . I will be posting a guide on installing my overlays in a few days. In the meantime, here are some install links:
