Display lightning form in modal after clicking on standard new button of contact

I am trying to display below lightning form in modal popup using overlay library. Please let me know how to do. 
I have overrided below form with Contact New button. Thanks.
    
    <aura:component implements="force:appHostable,lightning:actionOverride" access="global" >
    <aura:attribute name="recordId" type="String" /> <lightning:overlayLibrary aura:id="popuplib"/>
    <div class="slds-p-bottom_large slds-p-left_large" style="width:500px">
        <lightning:recordEditForm objectApiName="Contact" onsuccess="{!c.handleSuccess}">
            <lightning:messages />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="FirstName" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="LastName" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="Birthdate" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="Phone" />
            <lightning:button aura:id="submit" type="submit" label="Save record" class="slds-m-top_medium" />
            </lightning:recordEditForm>
    </div>  
</aura:component>

Client side controller:

({
    handleSuccess : function(component, event, helper) {
        
        var contactRec = event.getParams().response;
        var navEvt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToSObject");
        navEvt.setParams({
           "recordId": contactRec.id,
           "slideDevName": "related"
       });
        
       navEvt.fire();
    }  
})

Hi,

<lightning:recordEditForm> is not perfect: https://success.salesforce.com/issues_view?id=a1p3A000000FmjRQAS

You need a calling component included into a Lex record page (important). You cannot test this code with a basic application.
A new component like below for a test and you need to put it on a record page ( (wheel) > Edit Page ) 
<aura:component implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes,lightning:actionOverride,force:hasRecordId,force:hasSObjectName">
    <lightning:overlayLibrary aura:id="overlayLib"/>
    <lightning:button name="modal" label="Show Modal" onclick="{!c.handleShowModal}"/>
</aura:component>
Its controller below creating the modal: $A.createComponent("c:ModalTest", {recordId:recId}, 
({
    handleShowModal: function(component, evt, helper) {
        var modalBody;
        var recId= component.get('v.recordId');
        $A.createComponent("c:ModalTest", {recordId:recId},
           function(content, status) {
               if (status === "SUCCESS") {
                   modalBody = content;
                   component.find('overlayLib').showCustomModal({
                       header: "Contact Quick Edit",
                       body: modalBody, 
                       showCloseButton: true,
                       closeCallback: function() {
                           alert('You closed the modal!');
                       }
                   })
               }                               
           });
    }
})
ModalTest: 
<aura:component >
    <aura:attribute name="recordId" type="String" />
    <aura:attribute access="private" name="error" type="String" default=""/>
    <div class="slds-p-bottom_large slds-p-left_large" style="width:500px">      
        <aura:if isTrue="{! !empty(v.error)}">
            <ui:message title="Error" severity="error" closable="true">{!v.error}</ui:message>
        </aura:if>
        <lightning:recordEditForm recordId="{!v.recordId}"  objectApiName="Contact"  onsubmit="{!c.handleSubmit}" onerror="{!c.handleError}" onsuccess="{!c.handleSuccess}">
            <lightning:messages />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="FirstName" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="LastName" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="Birthdate" />
            <lightning:inputField fieldName="Phone" />
            <lightning:button aura:id="submit" type="submit" label="Save record" class="slds-m-top_medium" />
            <lightning:button aura:id="cancel" onclick="{!c.handleCancel}" label="Cancel" class="slds-m-top_medium" />
        </lightning:recordEditForm>
    </div>  
</aura:component>
Controller of ModalTest : 
({
    handleError : function(component, event, helper) {
        console.log('error');
    },
    handleCancel : function(component, event, helper) {
        //closes the modal or popover from the component  
        helper.closeModal(component,event);
    },
    handleSubmit : function(component, event, helper) {
        console.log('submit');      
        var contactRec = event.getParams().fields;     
        var fields = JSON.stringify(contactRec);
        console.log(fields);  
        var errorfields = '';
        var sep = '';
        for (var f in contactRec) {
            console.log('field:' + f + '=' + contactRec[f]);
            if (!contactRec[f]) {
                if (f !== 'Phone') {
                    console.log(f + ' empty and mandatory (stop)');
                    errorfields = errorfields + sep + f;
                    sep = ', ';
                    event.preventDefault();
                }             
            }
        }  
        if (errorfields !=='') component.set('v.error',errorfields+ ' must be completed');
    },
    handleSuccess : function(component, event, helper) {
        console.log('success');      
        helper.closeModal(component,event);
    }  
})

Helper of ModalTest: 
({
    closeModal : function(cmp,event) {
        var contactRec = event.getParams().response;
        console.log(JSON.stringify(contactRec));
        
        var navEvt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToSObject");
        navEvt.setParams({
            "recordId": cmp.get('v.recordId'),
            "slideDevName": "related"
        });
        
        navEvt.fire();
    }
})

handleSubmit : function(component, event, helper) is complicated because of a the bug

There are many alternatives with the modals (more or less components and/or dynamically created)
