I might either redo them sometime with a lighter tint or get bat's overlays. But I'd kinda like to do it myself. We'll see

Yeah, that's his lighter shade, the darker one was just too dark.

I got it at Super Autobacs, but I don't think there are too many of those around. I know I've seen Walmart carry it also. And I'm sure some of the well known automotive stores should have it.

I offer both my 6/10 tint=20% or lighter 3/10 tint=55%. I also have amber or redout, smoked amber or smoked redout, many options you can do with my Overlays .

Nice work. I also went with Blue Bat's red overlays.



I like the dark tint on yours though. Any pics at night with you in reverse?

shezzzhot.....ZOMG that looks hot!!!!!
crap now I really want that haha. I think I'll email bat about those
about the night pics in reverse, I'll be sure to take some and post them up here. Surprisingly the reverse lights and blinkers are still pretty bright even though the light is pretty much blacked out. Pics coming soon

Hi Pam! Damn, Overlays are holding up nicely! You've had them for what 3-4 years now?

Yes, installed in late '04 or early '05. They look fabulous. I was thinking about changing up when they get all tattered, but they still look good and I still get compliments!!

You are the bomb. I may order another set when I redo the rear bumper!
