Default Headlight Overlays installer.

Does anyone know a tint shop in the N.O. area that will install my overlays? Everyone that I call wants nothing to do with it, then the one place I got to try messed it up. Would apreciate some help, they really looked good.

They're outside, but the guy had been tinting windows for 20 years and he could'nt do it. I figured he should do a better job than I could.

I did my own but they didn't come out perfect. I'm surprised tint shops wouldn't do it, I hear plenty people bring them to tint shops.

If you know a shop around let me know. It looked kick *** on the PPW. I'd even throw you a few bones if you could help me put them on.

I'll do them for you. Where did you get the overlays from? Are they pre-cut? I purchased mine on ebay. It takes patience and time to get them applied. Here's the link for my installs: http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y24...2035th%20350z/ They are near the end so check view all and you can scroll thru without updating browser.

Yea it's a piece of cake. A guy that does tint you would expect them to know. lol.

My shop can do it, but I will tell you first hand, that you might want to wait for the weather to get warm. You have to wet apply them, and it's hard to do when it's cold. How dark are they? I had a set on my car, and took them off, because they were too dark, and it affected my lights. Let me know if your interested still.
