Looks amazing! How did you do it? I say definitely black out the reflectors on the bumper as well.

Did you use the Tint spray or the vinyl overlays? And it looks awesome by the way!

I think you should but that's your decision to make. Here is a link to Fiko's car who has it done. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...92#post2366792

Got my taillights and reflectors painted last week. I'll try to post pics tomorrow. The tails should be visible at night. The question is, how visible is it on a sunny day...
