Icon5 Third Brake Light Ideas

So, after quickly searching online, I didn't see any of the blackout covers for the third brake light to match the ones I am going to put on my tail lights. Does anybody know where a full matching set of all three covers can be found? Or should I just Nightshade the third light?

I'm open to new ideas of course.

Yeah they are illegal here too. I kind of did an experiment with my Firebird, though. I Nightshaded them completely black (looked incredible on the all black 'bird) and I never had a single problem from any cops. And that includes getting pulled over twice for unrelated traffic violations. It all depends I guess, since I have no idea how the cops in Canada view it. I made sure to replace all my bulbs, so that when I wanted them lit up, they LIT UP. And Nightshade is pretty tough to find locally. Usually its only available in like custom shops. I had to order mine online. It was cheaper, and less effort that way anyways.

i've never heard of anyone getting tickets for it... headlight covers, i think they give them out...

i'm going to do it to my truck, but it's one of those things you need to keep in mind... also is how dark you go...

Mine were completely black before, with no problems. I'm not doing headlight covers, just buying the headlight/corners that are painted black inside, you know?
