pretty sure it's a one piece... Bat started making one pieces awhile back. it'll just be a slightly tougher install though imo.

the 1 peice is harder to install then the 2? thats weird. u would think that with 2 peices it would be harder to match the lines and get it right. idk tho. ive never dealt with overlays.

hey bat, i e-mailed you regarding the smoked overlays i got from you.
how do you insatll them? i had a hell of a time trying it and it did not come out very good. is there some secret to doing it? it kept getting creased because of the shape of the taillight and the heat gun can only do so much. please explain if you don't mind.
the headlight covers were cake, i love them.
thank oyu.

i've seen way to many honda guys try to retrofit skyline GTR tail lights onto their car
and that was what my initial concern was lol! Looks killer. Find me a pic of what it'd look like on white and I'll be sending you money!

$38 shipped is a good price

All my taillight Overlays have been one piece for a while. However, I do offer 2 piece upon request . The trickiest part is the top portion due to the curvature. You basically want to strecth that part over as you work your way up. I actually took pictures of this install, and I will be posting an updated install guide showing how I installed these. Took me about 1.5 hours to apply this one, but as you can see, the time and patience paid off .

btw, where are the pics of your headlight Overlays

you should make a pattern for people so they can do the same thing I did to my overlays I bought from you. Someone else is selling kits that come precut, but I don't think it's a good idea to cut before putting the overlays on since there's a lot of stretching and adjusting going on. Plus, I think it would be difficult to get them aligned decently to make them look even (when precut).

well, the cuts are located in the relatively easy area of application.
