Thanks fellas.How we did these lights:
Clean the light.
Tape everything off.
Lightly scuff with 3M golds pad or about 800 ish sandpaper making sure all the shine is taken off .
Clean with alcohol.
Single coat plastic adhesion promoter.
2 coats solid black basecoat.
2 coats clearcoat.All sherwin williams auto paints so the finish on the lights will outlast the paint on the car.

The overlay is pretty much a red sticker.Those go on like tint .Wetting with decal solution and laying the film on top.Squeeging from the center on out.Then trimming with a fresh razor.

Also the glue on the back will smear all over the pace if not carefull.
