Here's a pic of the 40 dollar one listed above, along with the taillight bezels. This one is supposed to be held on with 3M, but I applied magnetic tape over the 3M tape, and made it magnetic....

That one is a plastic panel. I was asking about the bezels because i was worried about fit... whether or not the ebay plastic taillight bezels would make it too tight between the lights for the plastic piece.

I think that;s the route I am going to go with the plastic panel and the bezels... really nice and clean look.

Thanks guys, appreciate the kudos....Both the blackout and the bezels are from Moss Mustang...

The panel is smoked plastic, not vinyl. It's about oh, an eighth of an inch or so thick. The bezels are made from the same material. Bezels are held on with 3M. I made the magnetic mod, since I want to be able to take the panel off for a different look, cleaning, etc. I also added 4 strips of velcro that wrap around into the trunk, for security sake, since doing just the magnetic tape was not enough for me. They both have a high gloss appearance, which is what I wanted....Matches the new spoiler and hood scoop that way....







Anything else you need to know, let me know.....

Mike
