getting rid of rear talon lettering

[RGdsmNewb]

I want to improve the look of my rear tails, but i dont want to just black out the entire back. Is there a plastic piece i can get to go over the talon lettering / light bar or would i have to tin it. I want juust the two side rear lights to be seen, i think it looks fugly with the middle light

take out the center section and have it painted the same colour as your car, here's a pic of mine.

It's not even a light or a reflector. Kind of a gyp.

Oh yeah, blacked out looks the best IMO as long as its legal where you live.

This is from a thread on here. I couldn't find it again so since I had it saved I just uploaded it.

I want to do the same, but is there a way to pry the letters off? or do u have to sand everything down? I wanted to tint it darker but keep a slight redness and then tint the yellow turn signals a lil darker too.

The guy in the picture still has his on. Ive tried a little with my fingernail to get mine off and thinking they are molded in to the piece. You would probable have to sand them off.
Sanding off letter=PITA=Not worth it.

Hi, I have a 92.5 Laser RS - T. I wanted to remove all of the letters on my rear bumper for a more shaved look. I started by using a very, very sharp (be careful!) chisel and slowly lifted a corner of each letter off until I could peel the whole letter off. I worked my way down the line removing all of the letters. Then used a plastic scrapper to remove the excess glue. Cleaned and waxed and power buffed about five times, with no signs of any letters ever being there. The whole trick is to just go slow and be meticulous and it looks awesome & smooth!

They're molded in. I don't recall anyone smoothing them off.

Do not use "u" for "you" on this board.
