step 1- get a spray bottle fill it with soap and water.... clean your tail lights.... and then wet them again and wet the tint.

step 2- put it on and have a friend hold the side that is roundish while you work on the other side....

step 3- it comes with a little squigie thing so you that ... and the main source of this to come out good is to have a heat gun or a blow dryer...

step 4- blow hot air onto it while you press it down, make sure that you try to get all the water out of the tint ... wet it here and there on the outside so its easy to apply...

step 5- once you get to the roundish side stretch it out so that you can get it around the light ... some of the extra flap that you have tuck it into behind your light.. and repeat it ...

sorry its kinda wack im in a hurry lol ...

good luck
Cool. I'm gonna stop by so you can do my car's tail lights too.

I don't get it. But then I'm almost 60 and was raised to believe lights were supposed to be seen, especially tail/brake/signal lights...

I'm 71 and understand it even less. I guess it's this looking "cool" thing which becomes less important as we get older.

Yes, I’ve previously viewed your video and am glad to see that safety has not been compromised here. But what I’m saying, in a general sense, is that some mods, in addition to breaking the law, often compromise road safety for no other reason than a youthful call to be “hip”. It’s this aspect that we senior citizens have long ago outgrown.

Now that doesn’t mean we don’t enjoy driving upscale cars like G37’s. With my white hair, albeit there’s not much left, I get an occasional double-take from other drivers (“What’s that old man doing in a G37?”) that I like in my stock Infiniti coupe.

Perhaps, but they may also say, “Why doesn’t that old geezer just get a Buick and act his age?”

what do you guys think about the cut outs vs the whole overlay? the rear back up light is cut out...



I'm tying to decide on which route to go.

Also if I want to do an overlay on the front or get the inside chrome to be painted black/ or black chrome. My car is black.


Or just do the overlay like below?



what would you guys do? open to opinions...
