It would look good on mine minus the chrome, but looks good though. Nice job!

It might look fine, as long as your find the right vinyl color that matches your car.

I would probably still do the chrome, but just make it thinner. It doesn't look very good without it imo.

Thank you. I got them used from a member. The guy I bought it from said it was by Insurance, but I think it's made by BRAGA. Couldn't really find any distinctive branding to let me know who makes them though.

Sorry Lexkost, I re-read the question a few times, but I am still confused as to what you're asking me.

Its sort of of like the new Mercedez S-classes. Not sure which ones have them but they are color matched with whatever the car's color is. Looks dope though.

The clear section next to the back-up lights,you have to use a red bulb and then that bulb lights up the top red middle clear and bottom red,and that clear part looks bad. So what I did was opened the light and blanked of that clear section with a piece of mirror plastic , so it reflects the light back and only light up the top and bottom red section.

When I get so time I will take a pic of mine on so you will understand better.

Nice, I like that. I'm just wondering how it would have looked if you put the upper strip on the white/clear part instead. To have a larger red portion up top, then two similar sized portions (clear middle and red lower) below.

Hmmm...
