I have a pair just sitting around. Got them off ebay a while back but did not use them. Had my professionally done, and was not dark enough so was going to put the overlay over them. So if you want the overlays, I can sell them to you. PM me.

i like spray better than tint as long as you don't think you will change your mind. You can get the level of smoke you want and its a truer black, the dark smoke, most of the ones i have seen look like a dark gray-green almost. also you can buff out scratches, the tint will have to be re-done.
