Default Thoughts??

Hey guys just wanted to see what you all thought about like, not putting overlays on the side of the doors for trans am, and the back Pontiac. But getting some kind of paint if its been done hit me up. May look good i think but who knows anymore.

Just get the decals. They look just as good and a lot cheaper too. Painting would make it look lame in my opinion

Do not paint them! It would be a big pain and would wear off unless you stripped the old paint, primed them and repainted and then clear coated. The overlays are much easier and will last.

I removed mine and painted them on my old TA and it was kind of a pain but I had a hook up on paint and all. I would suggest overlays for the ease of it
