I have just ordered some of the pre-cut stuff for mine to. I think I am gonna completely remove the lights and fogs because I want it to be perfect. Let me know how you get on with fitting it Gaz :happy2:
MAT ED30:
use a heat gun or haid dryer on low just to give it some stretch and a credit card or a stiff rubber strip to gently push the stuff on :happy2: just an idea

did one light at about 7pm in my freezing garage on sunday night, looked sh!t so i ripped it off and went inside. looked good from a distance but the finish around the edges was crap, youl need to remove the lights compleatly to do a decent job. :smiley:

Did you get the pre-cut stuff or the cut yourself sheet Joe. I've got a pre-cut kit ready to go on the S3, but after reading the destructions its seems the temperature needs to be a bit higher so hangin on till the cars in the garage which should be this weeken :happy2:

i did this and they went on fine, no bubbles or creases, the lights just need to be taken off the car to get the best results. the lamin x stuff is pritty thick (not like window tint) so its fairley easy to apply.
oh and incase anybody doesnt know..... you have to take your bumper off to take your lights out :rolleye:
