overlay question.

im planing to get roof and rear bumper overlay kit form Bat.

but i have a few question , ,

so is this overlay kit cut out perfect size? or little bit bigger?

and , is that okay to take off the antenna and install it?

I talk to a guy who does professional job on overlay kits

and he asked me that, ,

so i just want to make it sure, before i order and do it.

thank you guys,

( I searched, , but nothing about that)

It's a little bigger, bat always leaves a little slack.

It also comes in two pieces.

they are bigger... so it ensures fitment... then you can cut the rest off after you finish installing it

you can take off the atenna it shouldnt be a problem, it should actually make the installation a tad easier. and if your an IP i recommend you get a OB atenna

Customer service and quality. You dont know how many people have ordered from ebay origionally then came to me because they just werent happy with the quality and cuts of the overlays, plus lackluster customer servioce. Being cheaper doesnt always gaurentee a quality kit or customer service. On a sidenote, look at the shipping charges those guys on ebay charge. 6.95 and then additional 4.95 for each item added. I charge a flat $2 on most orders, roof overlays are $8.

I've been looking into this (removing the antenna cover). Some people say that there is a cover that comes off but in the shop manual it has you remove a nut from underneath (under the headliner).

Does anyone know for sure that there is in fact a cover that can be removed without having to take out the headliner?
