So I looked through a lot of the threads and didn't get a definitive answer for where the Subie community recommends to take your car to have the overlays put on. Does anyone recommend a place that does awesome work, I just got my order in and would like to put them on.

Thanks

 

Al's Tinting. Al, himself usually will put on overlays and he does a pretty good job. But you will need an appointment and try and get the earliest appointment as it will lessen the chance of other jobs getting pushed back and prolonging your wait.

 

Thanks man, yea I heard some stuff in the other threads about Al tinting, but people said they didnt do a great job.

 

Yeah, that was me. They messed up on my first set but the second set came out better. However I should tell you that they are already starting to bubble on the top edges. I would look into painting them... it's cheaper and way easier to do.

 

did you end up painting yours? does it look better than the vinyls?

 

know of anyone who does good work on painting the Tail lights?

 

I painted mine.. Used red vht nite shades from O'Riley, just take your time masking it off and it will come out nice

 

No I didn't because my vinyls are still pretty good. But when it gets to the point that they need to come off, I'll paint them.

VHT is the way to go from what I read on other forums.

 

Looks like I have another Project this weekend, thanks guy.

 

Don't forget to take before and after pics!

 

when i painted the vht the finish was nice and glossy.. when i sprayed the clear over i got a matte finish.. i was gonnna buff it out but it kinda grew on me.. but if youre looking for gloss just watch what clear you get.. (it was a gloss clear)

 

 

All finished just gotta wet sand a few places and Buff. I had to use my car so Was not able to wet sand today.

 

Looks damn good!

 

Yea love the way it looks.
