Just a heads up - not sure if anyone else has had this issue, I nearly lost one the other day. Automatic car wash peeled it off the head light. Was able to stick it back down, but yikes.

This was 5-6 days after application so they should have been set.

Shipping to AUS is not cheap from any shipping provider unfortunately

I'm tempted! but if I wanted to remove them, would they come off nicely or leave a bunch of gunk & glue on? Look great from the pictures

Edit: should have read the entire post lol

Just installed the smoked tail light overlay and it looks incredible on BSM with blacklines so I just sent funds for the eyebrows as well.

Did you ever make these in colors or always just the silver? If you happen to have them in black I'll take black.

There's about 300 possible color options. Would you like matte black, gloss black, or carbon black?

Guessing carbon black would go best with BSM?

The gloss black is standard gloss black, and the carbon black has a simulated carbon fiber weave (3M Di-Noc).



Just depends on the look you are going for.

Installed this morning without issue. IMO the gloss black matches the BSM very well.

I am amazed how much a $29 decal updates the front end!

Interested to see what the other colors will look like.

Any plans on doing amber overlay decals for the e82?

I installed these today, honestly didn't realize they came with instructions so i pulled them completely off the backing and stuck them on. They look fantastic! Im very surprised they look this good in person. Might buy another set and install them properly just so they're 100%"perfect but for now i love them!

Hi there,

How much would it cost to get a pair shipped to New Zealand?

Thanks
