Sweet products, I hope you do well :thumbup:
|
How hard was it shaping the overlay around the curvature of the taillight? Seems like it takes some patience.
|
How much to order the tail lights overlay

Sent you a Pm.
|
I was wondering when you would show up here Andy. You still got the Viper?
|
More pic angles and what's the price?
|
Ye you should just post the prices, I believe those are the rules as well?
Anyways could you post more pictures of the lights , does one to have out the tail light to get the overlay on ? |
Waiting on price and then I'll likely be ordering right away.
|
I believe the price is $38. If you look in his photo in the link that are captions with prices. I'm just waiting on him to respond to my email so I can pay.
|
When you click on images in my gallery. Prices and ordering info are listed below :). Prices start at $10 for the turns signal Overlays. I'm working on taillight lids right now :). Should have pics up in a few days of those, and turns signal overlays, on an FR-S :).
Here is a sample of Smoked red on an STI: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y42...img2676yq5.jpg B@t™ |

yes! finally we got bluebatmobess..been a big fan ever since you signed up as a vendor on 8thcivic. planning to purchase the cut-outs for the tailights soon, the closest i can get to the grazio tailights.
|
For the tails, are these one piece or multiple pieces?
|
Been talkin to Andy about these since I got my car. Just placed an order for the red tails with cutout.
This is gonna be a pain in the ass to install but it'll be worth it. Definitely taking off the tails for the job. |

on a scale of 1 to 10, how difficult are the tail overlays? 1 being super easy, a child could do it, and 10 being pro vinyl and tint installers only.
|
Good to see you got some stuff going Andy!

Also, please keep in mind, these are slightly oversized to ensure complete coverage. Trimming and tucking in may be required after overlay sets. B@t™ |

You dont even know how many email requests even before the car came out, to produce these. Many are people who've sported my vinyl over the years :). B@t™ |
I've created taillight lids and will have pics up in a few days :). Also, pics for front marker lamps in amber finish :). I've gotten emails re reverse overlays just smoking or redding out the reverse section. I do offer that, just need pics :).

I am offering a two piece taillight overlay as well. Seam is hardly visible!
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y42...magejpeg_2.jpg B@t™ |
is the two piece easier to install than the full one-piece?
Also would you be able to do this design/cutout? http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j1...redcutout6.jpg |
Speaking of requests, could you also make one like this?

looking forward for more products and details.. Add my name in your future transaction.. Can't wait!
|
I have a feeling I'm gonna be in over my head trying to install my tail light overlays....
Any tips? I'm 1000% sure I'm going to remove the tails to do it but haven't really considered anything else to make this any easier. |

Hi Andy,
Here's a subtly aggressive yet clean-cut idea for a matte black overlay on the BRZ spoiler (outlined in red below only along the backing of the middle blade piece, not on the top). Works well with the existing black accents on the front bumper cover, side mirrors, and rear diffuser. And this would work with my BRZ STI black/blue theme I've got going. My idea was inspired by this Release Series tC spoiler: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUVYDydp-3Q#t=2m57s Can you make this? If you need a BRZ to work on in San Diego let me know! |

Oh boy, just got done (for now) applying my tail light overlays with the cut outs. The first one I had a lot of trouble with till I realized how pliable the vinyl really is once heated up. I did a lot better on the second tail light. I've never worked with vinyl before but I'll say as long as you are a patient person or like in my case, can encourage yourself to be patient for the sake of your car, you should be able to handle it. I can't imagine doing it without a heat gun or a professional hair dryer. My personal advice....
1. Clean the light first (soap/water mix) 2. Buff clean, make sure there's no finger prints 3. Spray some soap/water mix onto the light and onto the vinyl overlay 4. Using a squeegee of some sort smooth out the face of the light as much as possible. Get out all of the water too. 5. Start working on the edges, I choose the huge PITA curves at the end of the tail light (outside edge of the car) to start with. Heat the vinyl up to stretch it and then firmly press it down/squeegee it flat. Don't try to do the entire curve at once unless you're already experienced. Work from the inside out, saving the edges of the light for last. To avoid creases/wrinkles you're really gonna have to heat/stretch the vinyl. As far as the sale, thanks Andy! got them in a week flat. They were shipped to my work and my secretary was trying to figure out if the envelope said "F$*# me" or "kill me"...turns out it said "Fragile" :bellyroll: I'm gonna see if I can fix up the first one tomorrow morning and I'll try to get some pictures too. |
