Guys, it is very easy. When you get the overlays, instructions will be included. But here is how I installed mine and it came out w/o any bubbles whatsoever :

1) The overlays will come in two parts - drivers and passenger side. It is NOT one single overlay going from one side to the other. It is - I guess you can say, cut in half.
2) Before you even begin the installation process make sure you have a soap, a bottle of water spray, a credit card, a hairdryer and scissors.
3)
Prep the bumper for the installation making sure it is clean
4) The overlay will have a band-aid like adhesive that you will need to remove. Remove it and rub the soap on the overlay while spraying it with water (the idea here is to make the overlay slippery making it easy to move it on the bumper's surface).

You can start the actual application process at either the driver's or passenger's side. I started on the passenger's side.

5)Set the overlay at the right position (this perhaps is the trickiest part because you want to make sure the overlay is sitting just right).
6)Once the overlay is sitting where you want it to be, turn on the hairdryer and with the credit card start removing the water. (On this process you will notice that because of the heat, the overlay will become somewhat user friendly allowing you to contour the curves of the bumper).
7)Once the passenger's side is completed, move on to the driver's side.
8) Repeating steps 5 and 6 - sit the driver's side overlay in place, you will notice that it will overlap the passenger's side by about an inch or so. Using the scissors cut about a half inch or so, or until you see that it fits the driver's side just right.

And - that is all she wrote! You're done.......

Okay digging this one up big time but Larsim put his overlay on, it looked great and then the thread died. Deus made a rear valence, the 07-08 bumper has a nice valence. I saw the Altima cpupe valence one day at the dealership and thought it was the best.

K10 graciously photoshopped it onto my car but the reality of finding a way to make that fit is in the far future, if it's even possible.

Then I remembered BlueBat had made an overlay for our cars and for $42 it's far more "doable" the custom valences. Has anyone beside Larsim ever put one on? If Blue Bat still has them I think I am taking the plunge.

That's the kind of input I need. I've never heard anymore about these. How they hold up and install issues.

i can see how they would turn out very well. but you've gotta be patient with overylays/stickers/vinyl installs. and with something like this. two people may not be a bad idea.

Thanks ddelaud, I know I had trouble even with my sidemarker overlays. They can be tricky. Larsim did an awesome job on the install. Maybe Domestic doesn't have the overlay skilzzz

haha maybe not. I KNOW this is something you'd wanna use the soapy water for. just not too much soap! cause then it'll take long to dry. good luck with it if you decide to do it.
