Default Blackout 3rd brake light?

im sure theres someone here who has already done it.......

i ordered GTS taillight covers but now i just need to blackout the 3rd brake light but which method should i use? Should i spray it, tint it, or is there a plastic blackout panel thing that i can buy to put over it?...im leaning towards just tinting it, but i cant find any place that i can just buy the 3rd brake light blackout piece....dont tell me ill have to buy ALL the pieces just so i can have the 1 piece that i need......

have you guys found anything of this sort?

you could always just go buy some actual window tint, cut it to fit the brake light and use that. Seems like the easisest/best way to do it.

mine was already sprayed when i purchased the car used back in october '07...

it's fading pretty bad already - enough for me to want to go buy a cheap replacement takeoff.
