PS: Shift_Coupe, I see your sig, did you order these overlays? and if so, what shade did you get 3/10? or 6/10?

Hey shift_coupe your picture of your black altima with the tint overlays looks real good. Do you have 6/10 or 3/10 tint overlays from bluebat? And once I receive them how hard is it to apply them, is it something I could or anyone could do themselves?

They are 6/10. He does include instructions that should help you out. You could definitely do it yourself if you are the handy type. Helps to have a partner help you out as well. Takes a little manipulating with the vinyl around some areas. The coupe taillights have a couple hard angles.

Hey shift_coupe:Stupid qustion. If you apply heat to the tailight, since the tailight is plastic, do you run the risk of overheating and melt the tailight?

Don't laught ok.

No question is a stupid question. We are here to answer questions and exchange information

Heat was only applied to the overlay to make it plyable. I used a blow dryer which doesn't get that hot begin with. You don't need to apply heat directly to the taillight. Even if you did, the only time you would run the risk of melting it would be when your using a more powerful heat gun and you let it sit.
