Is anyone interested in body color painted side reflectors? If so, what color is your Stinger?

Here is our product page. We have silver, blue and panthera metal:

To install, you need to remove the inner lining and tail light. Then there are three screws holding each side in. After you remove the standard reflectors, install the new body-color painted pieces…

Are these color matched?

Well, they're painted using the OEM paint. Not sure if there will be a variation from Stinger to Stinger. The surface is different so I have a feeling there will be a slight variation. I think that would only make sense. When all is said and done, it will blend better than the reflector does...

I believe @Kamauxx had it done on his car, looks great. Although it’s not necessary for the hichroma red IMO

Yes I did. The reflectors are the one (two) thing(s) that nearly stopped me from buying my car.

They blend well with red but stick out like a sore thumb on other colors. I tried tint and vinyl wrap before having them painted and didn't like that look either.

Thank you, would like to see pictures of it (Micro Blue).

What I'm going to do is get an idea whether or not people are interested in something like this. If it seems like something more than one or two people are going to buy, I'll order a batch. There's a minimum that will need to be ordered in each color. I won't have pictures until I place and receive an order.
 
I’d like to see some pics of it done! I have ceramic silver.

Here's what it could look like on a CS, if colors are able to be matched well.

..................too funny , when I got my car it was going to be one of the first things I did ..............but now I think its one of the signature design elements that I like best ..................ie completely unique ...............friggin weird !! bawaaaaa
 
Does the side marker light still shine through the painted marker at night? I don't mind the look but i'm not sure i'd like seeing light there at night.

I didn't like the side markers either when I bought the car but they've grown on me as a unique design feature of the Stinger.

If I understand your question, it's a reflector, no lights.

There is a bulb behind it that illuminates when the headlights are on. My question was regarding whether the painted reflectors prevent that light from being visible.
