3rd Brake Light overlay
I purchased the bonneville 3rd brake light overlay from Grafxwerks and was wondering if anyone had any tips before i attempt to do this? I got the 2 stage decals. 1 black then the metallic silver decal to match the color of the car. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as i don't want to screw it up or am i making more out of this than there is? :lol:

Its knda tight up there against the spoiler, first trim off as much waste as you can on the top of the decal. Dry fit a few times to get the feel of laying it. You'll want to apply it top down to get it align properly, use a damp soft rag to work out any bubbles.

Actually the instructions that came with it suggest to take the brake light right out of the car to apply it to the lens. I was gonna try it the way PontiacDad suggested, but thought maybe it would come off after a few washes.

Let me know how it turns out. I ordered one two nights ago. |
I've had mine on all winter and several car wash's and its as good as new. To remove the light requires removing the trunk lid liner and maybe even the spoiler?
|
Yeah Removing the liner and the spoiler scare me so i think i'll try it your way PontiacDad.
I'm gonna do it tomorrow so i'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks |
I bought my 3rd brake light overlay last year from Vinzdecals online. It really adds a nice touch. What did you have printed, "Bonneville", or "Pontiac"?

I think I was the first to do this and have not had any problems with many washes, rain, and snow (few hail storms, some sunny days, power outtages, meteor strikes etc..).
I didnt take the light out of the trunk, just stuck it on. You may want to wipe the lens down with alcohol first to clean it off real well. |
