I can't decide.

How hard are they to install? do you just take it to a tint shop?

No. I was talking about the silver carbon covers. My car will be here in about 10 days. I think I'll order a set of these now. Can I get a 1addict discount? :wink: By the time they arrive, I should have my car and this will end up being my first mod. Do you have the GP thunders 8500k in stock? Might also order the matching AW plate frame. How about a bundle pack discount? Pm me please james. Thanks.:biggrin:

I ordered gunsmoke, but my car won't be here for at least a month

I'll post some pics when I get it applied, probably along with a tint job.

They're not hard, but we suggest you get it installed professionally to get the warranty included

These are already a very low price compared to purchasing a Euro version headlight or anything like that

We do have the 8500K in stock from GP Thunder, so you can always purchase them from us! I'll send you a PM anyway.

Why not get it now? That way when your car comes in, it will be ready for install!

Folks, I got the smoked version for my SGM and it looks perfect.

For those DIY'ers; I picked up a Gila film application kit for $10 from Advanced Auto and it took about 10 very cautious minutes of my time to apply these.

Thanks for sharing, and not to shoot down your DIY idea, but our Vitex Amber-gones are computer cut, so it's precise and flawless. It's cut to make sure both sides are symmetrical and there are no problems...and with the gunsmoked color, they are made by Lamin-X material, and those who know Lamin-X, know their superb quality.

Well I bought mine from you guys! When I mention DIY, I meant applying the Vitex overlays yourself. The Gila film application kit I bought for $10 included a application solution, squeegy and razor for cutting. It did not include any tint! I used this to apply the Vitex overlays.

I will see if I can get some sort of palette from Vitex The reason why I prefer installed pictures better is because those are live pictures.
