hey guys im looking into trying bat's new gtr style overlay that he has out for the altimas. i tried to do some photoshopped images to see how it would look and i think it looks alright. tell me what you guys think. they come in 3/10 or 6/10 smoke in redout with brake/reverse cutouts, available for both sedans and coupes btw.

So everything is smoked but the circle area in the middle and the reverse light? Definitely different. Not too bad looking. I'd have to see it.

Why go red when you can go black?

umm i dunno its just a different look. i think this is how the sedans shouldve looked in the first place, like the coupe taillights. this overlay would just make the sedans look like the coupes with a smoke overlay over a brake/reverse cutout. plus full smoke doesnt go good with that gray color in my opinion, id rather have a full redout or this gtr style for my paintjob.

decided to ditch the gtr idea and try a custom job. im trying redout w/ reverse cutout + full smoke 3/10 . pretty much makes the sedan look like a coupe with a 3/10 smoke i guess. lol. what do u guys think? is this cleaner or should i stay stock with the sedan taillights?

Steve, you and I have the exact same car in the same color. I was debating whether or not to smoke my lenses, but I don't know. I think I just have an itch to do something. The more I look at it, I think I like the factory lights better. I'm sure the aftermarket will catch up soon, so that's what I think I may wait for.

Smoked out on the grey and white looks awesome, not sure about the black...but surely doesn't look bad on the black...I can't even see tinting my windows with the super black yet... haven't found any real exterior mods I "have to have" yet...(for super black) but I have to admit if we had 18" rims a little closer to the wheel wells for cheap I might go for it...am I off topic again? sorry
