Question Blue Slate w/ tailight overlays?

Hey guys, I recently just picked up a BS g37s, thinking of doing 6/10 bat overlays on my tailights.

Anyone have a pic of tailight overlays on blue slate or can photochop it quick for me?

Thanks in advance!!!

i've thought about getting overlays too (i also have BS) but the only BS i've seen with any kind of black/tint (besides windows) looks kind of weird..

theres a guy here with black rims and his heads/tails smoked and i dont really care for how it looks.

Does anyone know if those look like 6/10 (dark) or 3/10 (light) overlays from bat?

I have a BS and I am trying to order the GTR tail overlays but Bat doesn't seem to want to take my money.. So when I am able to get them I will post pics. But make sure to get nice tints, my 20% tints really look phenomenal on the BS

Question

Isn’t there the possibility that these overlays will cut down enough brake light illumination as to increase the likelihood of a rear end collision? I know some of you will say that there’s ample brake lighting and that it may meet legal requirements, but as long as there’s less light than that coming from an unmodified lens, isn’t there still a modest safety compromise?

^ nope these are LED brakes so they still very bright, it actually makes them clearer to see, it reduces all the glare off the glass of the light. Anyone who has been behind a G with tinted tails knows what I'm talking about
