Bluebatmobile Vinyl Overlays for Tail Lights **Pics**

I got some Evo7 style tail light vinyl overlays from Bluebatmobile in SD. He does great work, and I really like how they turned out. He used to be on these forums a while back. He made templates for my headlights (smoked) and side markers while I was there as well. I'll get pics up for those when I get them on. Here's some pics of the tails:

I actually just found that out the other day.. Yes, I do have red reverse lights. It's really not a big deal to me.

That is definitely true. I haven't run into any problems in Torrance yet, though. I'm only there on the weekends.

Switch the reverse bulb with the turning bulb and you are all good. I did that with the painted tails I did, following suggestions from other members who have done it. It's pretty easy. You just need to cut one small tab on one bulb to install it to the other socket.

So when u go in reverse it would still be white light. Search for it and you can find more info. Good luck!

I recently got those overlays also. If you have no experience applying flat film to a 3d surface or window tinting I don't suggest you apply them yourself. I tried and the more I tried to straiten it out with a hairdryer and get out all the bubbles the worse off it became. At one point it was so wrinkled I was about to throw them out. My friend who has experience tinting winodws used the hairdryer and spent about an hour fixing my mistakes and it did come out very well.

I hear that, I figured it would be a piece of cake to put em on but I was wrong as usual lol. My mom ended up fixing it up for me with a hairdryer Thats what moms are for right?
