@daren_ipl By no means am I even remotely good at photoshop, heck I'm barely a beginner; but for the purpose of sharing I guess I'll attempt a mediocre replacement of the left tail with a random one I found online. I guess something is better than nothing right? :P

I think I'm gonna go with the black chrome since it looks real nice on one of the previous replies to this thread. Gonna make the front emblem the same black chrome. But now my front grill it makes me wonder if i should leave it chrome or make it matte black or flat black?
Thanks for input guys

You're welcome, here's what the bluebat overlays look like, basically it's not fully blacked tailight overlays, there's 3 cutouts including two circles and the reverse (you can get them without reverse cutout too).
^ car belongs to myk1013, hoping he doesn't mind me re-sharing his awesome job.
There's also a version of the GT-R Tails that have a lighter shade of black if that's too dark for your taste, I plan on ordering those GT-R tails soon for my own G

LOL just playing man.
Yes, I love my GTR tails. I got the darker 6/10 shade. He also has 3/10.
You can also check out 180 Customs, they can actually smoke/paint your taillights GTR style. It's a much much cleaner look.
And regarding OP's emblems... depends on what your plans for the rest of your car. If you go with gloss of matte black grill and diffuser, then match your emblems with those.
I just received my overlays in the mail, just had to ask bluebatmobile a question before I install them. Or maybe someone here can help.. Is The 6/10 overlay suppose to be a brown color I'm kinda confused

Have you considered just keeping the IPL only and debadging everything else?
Did a quick mockup, I think it looks pretty cool with your color, definitely draws more attention to the tails.
Even better with the bluebat GT-R overlays + only blacking out the silver on the IPL
