Default More of Bat's overlays installed

Recently took a few pics of my reverse/signal overlays. Haven't seen a whole lot of people with these overlays but I love them. I'm trying to go with a dark theme with my car, if that makes any sense. Adding dark accents here and there have so far made a big difference. Feel free what to tell me what you think.

I'm new to this overlay thing...
It's just decals that goes over your lights to make them darker?

Yeah they are decals, but high quality ones, if thats not an oxymoron . . . they go on easy and they dont look or feel like "just decals"

The good part is that I was afraid I would lose a lot of light from the overlays, but even these overlays are 6/10 tint and they barely block out any light.

Dude - you HAVE to install the overlays on your tail lights... it looks really weird seeing that contrast between bright red and dark smoke colors.

I'd rather find an overlay for the license plate lights, those things are too bright for my taste and makes it kinda wierd to make your license plate stand out so much at night.

Very nice overlays! How do you apply these overlays? Are they already cut into the exact shape of each part? If it isn't too difficult to apply them, I'll likely order all of the smoked overlays.

Use soap and water to get the Overlay positioned. Then sgueegy all the water and air bubbles out. Use a hairdryer for the curved areas. Can be removed if desired. See my install guide in Exterior Forum. I've updated the pics!
