Same tape but At night with a flash

During the day my mirror is all black, looks like smoked reflectors or window tint reflectors. LOOKS CLEAN!

Black retroreflective tape is great stuff!

But at night., with lights or maybe a flash...it's bright as hell


Sexy during the day, safe at night.
Gonna do safe stickers tomorrow. Like FORD on my grill and maybe KEEP BACK 500 ft on my tailgate.

This stuff is black during the day and white under direct light!
But under a little INDIRECT light this stuff looks silver, perfect MOD for a silver truck!

I'm running PUTCO LED's, their plasma LED's look good but not BRIGHT ENOUGH!


Full LED setup from CARID and Auto Anything but decided to get brighter LED's from VLEDs. More cool lights in route. More cool tape in route too. Gonna use this reflective black tape AS much as possible. Pretty stoked!

Great idea! I wanna see what it looks like during the day

No problem, probably do my grill and maybe
KEEP BACK 500 FT
on my tailgate!

Look bad a$$ during the day!
Looks better at night!!

Where can you get the tape?

 

[RajunCajun37]

It's 3M and I got a SMALL amount from a bicycle shop
My mountain bike glows in the dark, BTW

Where can you get the tape?

Google search "3m black retroreflective tape"

Make sure you get engineers grade tape..

I did the same thing to my mirrors several years ago. I got the tape from Police Gear | Police Equipment | Tactical Gear | 5.11 Tactical | Bates Boots | Streamlight | Safariland | Galls and it has held up very, very well.

I have two patches of it on the nFab rear bumper guard, and I think it would be ideal for the inside of the driver's door of a Tuxedo Black Raptor to warn passing drivers that the door is open.

But that's all I've done. I really don't want my truck to look like a Christmas tree or a neon billboard. I'm an American outdoorsman, not a pimp, and I want my truck to reflect (!) that.
