hey i need some opinions on my rear bumper lights. i was incredibly bored at work today and had some free time so i grabbed some of this material we use at work to sun block our doors and tried making my rear bumper lights look like carbon fiber. please feel free to leave me some input, i dont care if the comments are bad, i rather know ahead of time. it was free and will come off as easily as it went on.... check em out and let me know

the material i used i bought at walmart. if you go to where the tinting crap is in the auto dept. there is a tint kit that has a cross design on it. not the one that you can put on the front windshield, but the one that goes on the back window of a truck kind of like the type that you see everywhere that looks like the USA flag. its like $19 sometin for the whole thing. though youll have a lot left over. ive dont it to my car, a white gt and a silver gt, and it does look good on all of them. the lighter the color the more its obviously going to stick out, though the darker the color, the more it blends the lights into the car. if any one has any questions PM on how i did it. you do need to stretch the material a little but a hot air dryer did the job very well. just save a little around the lip of the light and wrap it around. also attached is something extra i did. i also wrapped the material around the orange corner lense. i have carbon fiber headlight covers already though with the material underneath it it makes it blend well into the car. and light still shines through it. any other questions feel free to contact me.
