I agree. The trim on the antenna piece is important. To me, it can make or break the entire feel for the overlay. Bat definitely has some good stuff though, I'd recommend it for those that want overlays. The GTR style are awesome. Took my car in for service today and got a few compliments from the mechanics and service people as they crowded around my car.

Bat, if you're reading this, sorry Ive been lagging on the photos, I've been swamped at work and was hoping the rain would stop so I can zaino and take some good pics.

i heated it up with a blow dryer. its all dried up now..wrinkles that doesnt seems to go away..im probably going to cut those wrinkles and add another small piece of left over overlay and heat that, hopefully it goes on with being noticeable. it looks great with the taillights and rear valance on tho.
