T6 Rear Bumper Reflectors Smoked Black

[Tiggy1955]

Does anyone know if it is possible to get these wrap around rear bumper reflectors in smoked black? I don't seem to be able to find any online.

I have seen some on eBay that are actually LEDs and are wired to the brake lights. However I'm after some that are just reflectors as a straight swap for the red ones.

Thanks

Most of the black 'reflectors' I've seen don't actually reflect.

Yeh I wondered about that @JumpShip . Maybe I'll spray the existing one with a tint.

So long as you have reflectors somewhere (rear lights maybe) otherwise it's an mot fail .

Thinking of doing mine or replacing

Nothing actually. Decided not to bother!!

As above, it’s an MOT fail if you have no red reflectors on the rear. Maybe it’s more commonly known in motorcycle circles as tail tidies often get rid of the reflector - hence that 20mm red dot reflector you see stuck to motorcycle number plates.

Way back in the mists of time ....

Stretch a stocking or pair of tights over the reflector and hit it with a can of black.

Results may vary ... and I've no idea if that's even legal.

I tinted mine using some light tint adhesive wrap from ebay
