I'm a HUGE fan of the Daytona's.....they look great! I have the Superbird overlays on mine.

 

Very nice upgrade. I think these look so much better than the stock rear lighting.

 

Looks awesome. Where'd you get them?

 

3rd strike performance. They look really cool with the sequentials too!

 

Looks really good! Very distinctive.

Are you going for the full tribute look?

 

Well, now I've seen it all.

 

Nice job! They look real good!

 

Those taillight overlays really look Good!

 

Those covers look nice. Good job.

 

Has to be my favorite tail light upgrade that I have seen thus far.

 

You must have added the script badging yourself? Nice touch.

 

Yes. Got it off of eBay!

 

Looks good !

 

Nice look

 

Looks great my only comment would be that the script logo is crooked, might want to re-apply that. Right side is too low. Very cool mod though.

 

Could you possibly post a link to where you bought those overlays? They look awesome and wouldn't mind adding them to my 09 b5 blue

It looks like there is bleed over between the housings? or around the outside of the overlays? This is what has been keeping me from doing this as I love the look. Im just worried about the bleed. Maybe can do something preinstall to cover the outer lenses? I have never been a fan of our width of the car tail lights. Also do you have to take the stock "Dodge" letters off the center of the tail assembly? I know this post was a while ago, but maybe someone who has these can chime in.

 

There is a slight bit of light leak at certain angles. I am a bit unhappy with the fit of the covers to be honest. But I don't show my car, so I can live with it for now. I may take it into a custom place to see if they can adjust the fit. I just love the overall look. Yes, you do need to remove the DODGE lettering. I have seen people reuse the letters where I put the script. (Which I need to straighten)

 

They look great! Love the Daytona covers!

 

I have been thinking of doing this for a while. But i am thinking about taping her off and plasti dipping the lenses where the "bleed over" looks to be coming from. Will doing this cause any problems with the install? Will i be putting 3m tape on the plasti dip if I do that? I dont want to adhere the covers to the plasti dip. If you can get what I'm asking there.

 

I like these but I can't seem to locate anyone that sells them.

 

I checked 3rd strike performance, they don't seem to have them anymore. These will give you a very similar look and hopefully fit better.

HPP and Mancini Racing used to sell them.....but I heard they are out of production like the Superbird Overlays....so getting your hands on a set may take some looking around.

 

I have tried both with no success. I guess they had too many complaints about the light leakage but it would appear that you can overcome it with tape.

 

As you can see, the fit is very poor, and it's not from the tape. Looks great from afar, but if you're showing, this wouldn't cut it.

Thank you for the pictures. I still think if I could get some tape or??? maybe they would be acceptable. I'm not showing mine any way.

Yep, unfortunately, even though these were re-designed quite a few times, they have never, ever fit perfect. It's just something you have to deal with. It bothered me too for a long time but there's really nothing you can do about it. I got mine from Steve White and they suggested putting extra 3M tape on the bottom for better adhesion, which worked, BUT it also made the fitment that much worse because of the extra tape. You can't win.

As far as the bleed though, mine had light leak mainly across the top. I plasti-dipped around the top to fix this and it took care of the light leak. Been fine for about a year. The smart thing to do would have been to do this before you put the overlays on, but i'm not that smart

 

Does anyone know where you can order these? I tried Thirdstrike.com but I don't see them on the website

 

im pretty sure every vendor has stopped selling these due to quality issues. You could try contacting Michigan Vehicle Solutions, they are the ones that have the molds and were the last company producing them. Maybe they have some laying around they will sell. Let us know if you do. http://www.mivehiclesolutions.com/

Nice Daytona covers can you send me a link to buy one

 

I just ordered a new set from Mancini Racing. The set I ordered a few years ago was made by a different manufacturer and they were plastic injection molded. The fit is bad. I was told these new ones are OEM and fiberglass with a much better fit. I will say I’m not happy with Mancinis communication. I asked for them to tell me how much shipping would be before shipping them and they went ahead and charged me without replying to me. I never got a tracking number. When I called, they still didn’t give me a tracking number and told me they were being drop shipped and i should receive them in a week. A week later I called again and I was told they were out of them and the manufacturer was out of them too but they were making more and I should have them in a week. It’s now two weeks later and Im still waiting with no reply to my email. I’ll call again tomorrow.
