Thumbs up Bat's Smoked Taillight Overlay(PICS)

This one turned out really nice. Gives the car a more aggressive appearance . The tint has a darkness of 6 out of 10, so you can clearly see the red reflectors underneath, yet at some angles it appears to be alittle darker than it really is. Enjoy .

looks good...let me understand this correctly

is that the same tint that you pictured in the "full headlight" thread

or is this the darker tint that you emailed me about?

if this is the darker one can you take pictures of this tint on the headlight?..or will the headlight end up being black?

is there a tint setting between the one pitured above and the one pictured in th headlight thread?

Wow... nice! I like them.
Do we need to take off the tail lights when installing them?

I"m using standard tint on the tails. This is the stuff I use on most of my smoke kits. I ised a light tint on my full headlight Overlay because I wanted something subtle for the front. I would rate the light tint a 3 out of 10.

Great thing about all my Overlays is you don't need to remove anything to install.

What exactly are "overlays?" Is it like those old GTO light covers that "lay over" the lights?

It's a Vinyl Overlay. Just peel and stick to apply.
