I should be meeting with him later today. I'm not sure what he has in mind, but I have a few ideas of my own. I'd love to do gold/bronze tinted overlays to match my rims, and then leave the red circle on the tails uncovered. We'll see what he has to say about it. There's a lot of different options for our cars. I can't ferget though, I still gotta take the car to Mazda Escondido to get my head/taillights replaced under warranty. They've had the parts over a month, I just never have time to take it and leave it there!

Met with Bat today and he made templates of the lights. Stay tuned for the first run at overlays.

Thumbs down

Nothing. I kept emailing him, he kept saying he was going to call me that day and it never happened. Basically, I just gave up. I hear he's active on the 350Z boards, so he hasn't disappeared. I don't know what the deal is. Sorry guys.

Yeah I know, he had it when I met up with him. He posted pics on the Z board too.

I just emailed him again. I'll let you know if anything transpires.

He didn't take your money and run, did he? Or are you just on his "I'll get to designing something one of these days" list?

No, it's a sponsor-type-deal, where I lend my car and get free overlays in return. He doesn't have any designs for the 8 yet. Funny thing is, I got my friend with a tC in touch with him, and they did the overlays in a week, and I still can't get in touch with him. Bastard tC. Haha.

His overlays are very popular over at the z boards (as is the viper)

Why do you need to buy an overlay when you can make it your self?

It's only plastic tape.

Check out the thread from Kieth about his red tail lights.
