I tinted mine previously with a translucent matte black vinyl. No one even knew it was there until I pointed it out. Blended right in with the diffuser. I've since gone with a tinted valenti.

If your car look stock ish i wont do it, always harder to cut/mold something up cuz that light is pretty high up there in the eye sight. you should just put a aftermarket rear without rearfog, so u get to sell the oem rear off or keep it for resell.
