im gonna put on the tail light overlays from aggresive overlays tomorrow, and i was wondering if anybody had any special tips and tricks for the application? i have bat's photo tutorial on how to do them and plan to follow that. jsut wondering if anyone has any suggestions to keep me from screwing up. thanks

 

hey, i have overlay from aggressive overlays
i have photo on my profile if you wanna see
it was my first time to put on overlay and i'm noob doing it but one tip is that you gotta stretch it out a bit while going around the curve in order to have less bubbles.

 

call me up if you need help.

Assuming it's a one piece overlay, stretching over the top portion should help eliviate the creases and bubbles

i learned it hard way
messed up my right side
figured out while doing left side haha
i looked at instruction it didnt have the stretching part..

 

arent people using soap and water? I thought i saw a picture of this? by the way ..bat .... I got the overlay today .... looks nice.

 

i think im gonna take you up on that offer hahaha. i tried installing one a couple hours ago and jacked up horribly. i was having a lot of trouble triming it and getting it lined up right. so now theres bubbles and creases and a bunch of other stuff. ill pm you trung.

 

Pics!

heres bat's guide:

the install seems pretty simple, but the lights on the tc are so much more difficult than the example on the nissan Z. we have a really big curve around our tail lights that proves to be a huge problem when trying to line things up and prevent creases. i started from the side and worked in towards the trunk, but id suggest doing it the other way around.

 

thanks for the guide. I am going to be installing the front eyebrows. It should work out well and shouldnt be that hard because its only a small piece and I dont have to cover the whole light.
