you did well on the rear valence so I'm sure with a lil help, you'll do well with the tails too

Would it be easier to remove the tails in order to wrap the excess around it? However now that i think of it removing them may not help when you need to apply pressure to press out any bubbles

Just take your time and be patient.

Have a look at a how-to I wrote a while back.

Thanks to your DIY, my headlight overlays turned out great first time around when I installed them last year.
