See Airaid intake and Beatsonic BRZ fin for examples as to why.
I'm not sure how those examples can relate to vinyl. If you don't like an overlay, you just rip it off and start over. Any residue left cleans off easily. Yes, it does cost something, but it's definitely not $100+.

I get that you don't want to be a guinea pig, but you've been asking for the same thing for...a while now. If no one else ever decides they want 3/10 smoke over clear lights, you'll never get to see a pic of it. Not trying to sound like a jerk, so I'm sorry if it comes off that way. It's just that he doesn't have a brz/frs "shop car" and can't try out every variation himself.

My car had several variations of the red which is why there are BRZ pics on his site now. It just so happens that I work 5 min from the installer and get along with him really well, so this was pretty easy to facilitate and I'm helping out friends.

A business like Bat's relies on people willing to try something new and send in pics so that others can have an idea what it looks like. I don't know if you've already asked, but I really think my idea of a sample piece is the way to go. It's a huge PITA to wrap these lights (that little fin in a killer) and I know he wouldn't want someone to be unhappy with the result and feel like they didn't get their moneys worth. Just send him a PM, can't hurt to ask.
