Hey CivicX Fam,

I was messing with some ideas since we don't have an aftermarket for civic coupe taillights. After some fun in photoshop, I wondered what the coupe would look like without the center LED strip since mine doesn't work anyways and it's like $300+ to replace. Here's what I came up with.

What tape or cover up material would best suited for a job like this? I want it to be completely blacked out or at least as near as it can be so that you can't notice the LED strip is there.

Thanks!

Best would probably be gloss black vinyl, but I'd prefer my coupe to not look like a sedan.

The only thing I'd be aware of is if there are any laws for 3rd brake lights or your backup lights. Cover them up/changing the color may grant you a ticket in the future.
