The problem with that concept is that you are going to have angle problems. From the side, it might look okay or great, but straight at it, it'll be easy to tell it's a sticker.

at the corners it wouldnt be see through at all
like i said i wont be testing this
just an idea for him to explore if he ever wanted to offer a more realistic (higher priced) sticker
and with this new overlay thing he has going it would look killer

Just to confirm, do I need the old overlay in order to use the new one? Or is this completely different from the first version? If I need both, how much? thanks.
