need CT shop to install overlay

Hey guys I'm looking for a shop in the CT area to install my bluebat roof overlay on my G sedan. Its already precut and everything i just dont feel like trying it myselt and potentially messing it up.

Some have told me any sign shops that makes vinal would do it, some have told me any tint shop would do it. but i dont know any GOOD and reputable shops around here


If any of you have had it done, where did you go?

Its really not that hard. I did my tails and roof on my previous G and it came out fine. All you need is lube (i diluted some simple green) and rubber squeegy... You will take on full suspension and enginebay but scared of an overlay?

I tried asking Tint masters yesterday since that's where I got my tints done and he said he wouldn't touch the roof. And I'm the guy who posted the same question yesterday lol

I just used warm soapy water, a squeegy and a hair dryer and my tails came out great.
The roof must be a no brainer in comparison to the 07+ tails.

I think im going to just tackle it myself, I have came to the conclusion that if i put down enough soapy water on the overlay and on my roof, then it will be hard to mess up because i can just keep "sliding" the peice around. So im just going to use ALOT of soapy water :]

Sound good to you Bat? haha
