🛠️How to Install:

For Best Results
Tools Needed: Heat gun or blow dryer, padded glove or felt-tip squeegee
**Professional Installation Recommended, but not required**

Step-by-Step Installation:

1. Rinse the entire brake and running brake light with 70% isopropyl alcohol or water/soap to remove all debris before application.

2. Dry the brake and running brake light surfaces completely to ensure no dust or residue remains on the surfaces or in the crevices.

3. Start with the Side Reflector:

   1. Begin either on the Driver's Side or the Passenger's tail light side marker reflector. Align the curved edge facing the quarter panel. The top and bottom edges should meet the black surround of the taillight. 
      

   2. Once you have aligned the overlay at the curved edge pointing towards the quarter panel, the rest will fall into place. Except for the end of the tail light overlay that is to be wrapped around the bump and downward towards the white turn signal bar. 
      

   3. We prefer to lay the top portion of the overlay first, smooth the top part down and then work on the bottom portion where the wrap is supposed to fold to the bottom portion of the tail light. Remember, to lay the overlay with your finger in a left-to-right motion, one section at a time, to prevent bubbles from forming. 
      For example, if you are working on the top portion, swipe from one side to the other, then slowly move down in the same swiping motion as you inch closer to the bottom portion of the overlay.
      
      
   4. As you get to the edge (the overlay section that is closer to the turn signal), you may need to slightly peel up what you already laid about 1 inch off and use a heat gun to heat the overlay. 
      
      
   5. Once you see that edge slightly becoming more malleable, use your finger and pinch the overlay and lay it to your desired placement. Next, use a felt-tip squeegee to lay that edge in one precise swipe, pushing the entire overlay edge down in one go. This method will glass it down and push any air bubbles towards the closest edge in one fell swoop.
      
      

4. Peel the Quarter Panel Brake Light (running brake light) overlay 
   

   1. Align the overlay either at the seam where the reflector starts or at the edge of the light where the trunk crevice starts.

   2. Ensure that wherever you lay the overlay, the cutout of the bump fits perfectly around the raised bump. This will help align the overlay properly as you lay it onto the surface.

   3. The overlay should match the top and bottom lines of the brake light/running brake light just before the black surround. Swipe from one edge to the other edge in a uniform motion (left to right or vice versa), working your way down after aligning the top of the overlay.
      
      
   4. The rest should fall into place once aligned.
      
      
   5. Next, you can decide to add the raised bump tint or not, but if you do... lay the bump overlay tint at the sloped edge first. Ensure it matches the sloped cut-out edge before tacking it down. 
      
      
   6. Use a heat gun or blow dryer and heat the raised bump tint about 2-3 inches away until you see the vinyl start to conform to the bump. Use your finger and massage the tint slowly in a uniform fashion to ensure the overlay wraps around the entire bump. Once it is wrapped around completely, it should sit at the cutout line or slightly onto the already installed brake light tint.
      
      
5. Lastly, peel off the inner running brake/running brake light tint that sits on the trunk.
   
   
   1. Once peeled, start at the edge that is either at the trunk crevice or the edge that points towards the logo. Ensure the top and bottom consistently meet the edge of the running brake light throughout the whole lay.
      
      
   2. Once aligned, the rest should fall into place, but adjust as needed. When laying the overlay, start swiping in a right-to-left or vice versa motion. We like to start at the trunk crevice as it is the highest portion of the running brake light, and we swipe horizontally, pushing all bubbles out towards the closest edge and moving downward toward the reverse light section.
      
      
   3. After installing the last piece, follow the next step below for the best adhesion of the overall product.
      
      

6. Once everything is laid out to your desired outcome, follow the steps below to ensure longevity and adhesion.

7. Post-heat the vinyl: Use a heat gun or blow dryer to remove small bubbles and activate the adhesive for stronger bonding.

8. If bubbles remain, press firmly with your finger or squeegee and swipe them out toward the closest edge.

9. If you make a mistake, gently peel off the overlay right away and reapply. Add light heat to remove wrinkles.

10. Important:  Light Smoke and Dark Smoked overlays include a PET liner that must be removed after installation. Cherry Red and Dark Red may be easier to install with water/soap; however, if you are adept at installing overlays, it may not be needed.

📌 Reminder: Always post-heat the vinyl after installation. This activates the glue and ensures maximum adhesion.
