Yellow Foglight Overlays
Well, after a bunch of bull**** from UPS I finally received my AeroTect overlays.
I followed the instructions and it took a couple of minutes per side. My only gripe, the driver's side foglight overlay has some very fine bubbles (whereas the passenger side is perfect). I tried smoothing it out with the applicator. I tried using a heat gun. The bubbles just won't come out. ARghhhh!
The parking light LEDs are PIAA blue/blue but in the eBay pictures they looked whiter - I'm not quite digging the ricey look but my knuckles don't want to take them out until the warmer weather.
Anyway, here are some pictures, don't mind the salty car - our winters blow.

- because the film is pretty thick and relatively small in size, it was easy to position on the lens
- use the provided applicator and smooth out the film, draining the solution and bubbles
- apply some gentle heat from a heat gun
- wipe up and presto
That's it.

dsnzoom, don't worry too much about the tiny bubbles. That stuff is hella hard to install properly. I think thats why it costs hundreds of dollars, it all goes to labor! lol
Anyway, your car looks pretty good to me.
