    I would love to do that but i think i would get harassed by cops for blacking out even the reverse light area.

    I have a pair of the black-out GTS Tail-light covers on my Firebird, did fine for about 8 months...cop pulled me over for them and decided to rip them off right there on the side of the road. Fortunately the were held on with double-sided tape.
