Rear Reflectors

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone has put aftermarket reflectors on their bumper or something of the sort.


I recently installed some new tail lights, and they don't have built in reflectors, so I'm trying to put 2 on the bottom side of the bumper.

Some black reflective vinyl would be nifty in that channel between the painted and plastic part of the diffuser

You can easily buy retroreflective red tape from your local auto parts store and stick it anywhere you like.

Rear reflectors like this could look decent.

There’s also trading your new tails for ones that do have reflectors built in.
