No problem, I hope my little bit of advice is helpfull. I used the left over spray paint, just sprayed a litle in a cup. The spay paint I used is Rust-Oleum "Universal" The brushes I used are simple hobby brushes from the WallMart arts and crafts section

Here is the link to the vendor for the Vinyl overlays:
BLUEBATMOBILE.net - Nissan 370Z Forum

I should be able to get these on the car tonight. I will post pics this weekend.

And here are the before and after pics and the brushes I used:

JB1, I can't seem to find the link for the vinyl overlay. Is there some where I'm not looking?

Try this email address. They guy doesn't have an online store, just email him and he'll give you instructions on how to order. A bit weird, but it worked for me.

mailto:bluebatmobile@san.rr.com

I put the overlays on yesterday, but i'm not 100% happy. To the left and right of the " fog light" the overlay didn't cover completely, so I'll email bleu bat to get some feedback.

Pics are attached below. As you can see it's not far off, but just enough to create 2 "fangs" on either side of the fog light cove thing. So I got rid of the front fangs, but added rear fangs, how about that...

BTW sorry Simota for taking over your thread

I see what you mean. It doesn't look bad at all though.
