View Full Version : Custom third brake light cover?
unknownsoldierX 05-15-2006, 12:37 AM I've seen those vinyl third brake light covers that say "COLBALT". Anyone know where I could get a custom one that says something else?
I sent a message to the guy on ebay, but didn't get an answer.
most of the guys on ebay will make them custom just look on there.
unknownsoldierX 05-15-2006, 01:51 AM Ok, thanks. I only asked one, so I guess I'll keep asking others.

just make sure the ebay guy spells it "COBALT" :lol:
unknownsoldierX 05-15-2006, 02:53 AM I'm a big fan of the band Tool, so I want one that just says "TOOL". I got a message from one of the guys, he'll do it at no extra charge.
danklite 05-15-2006, 09:15 AM Do you really want something that lights up on the back of your car that says "Tool" ? I know its a band and all but just seems odd, it could definetely be mis-interpretted.
snobird 05-15-2006, 09:17 AM you could always go to your local vinyil shop or local sign shop decal shop whatever they will take the measurments for you and can cut it out for you too
ajent 05-15-2006, 09:23 AM I made the mistake of getting the "chrome" cobalt SS one. I thought I was actually getting a chrome piece with maybe 3m on the back, but its just reflective stuff that isn't cut to the correct size, looks good from a distance, will replace when I find something better.

I don't really care. Though, I'll prolly put it on after put a vinyl on the back window.

I thought about that, but the one I'm getting on ebay is only $9 shipped.
bavoose 05-15-2006, 08:24 PM they should make a clear one because those stupid stickers just cover up your exsisting brake light it makes no sense.
unknownsoldierX 05-15-2006, 09:06 PM Look at it again. The letters are cut out, so when the brake light is on they glow. Really, what would be the point of a transparent sticker?
Smiles 05-22-2006, 12:56 AM I just ordered the carbon fiber look 3rd brake light sticker. looks cool
markmets415 05-22-2006, 09:07 AM I got the Cobalt SS one from ebay, look nice and fits perfect.
i bought one off ebay, and it didnt fit right at all, it was one of the guy's first he made
wouldnt give me a refund, fuckin waste of money
ajent 05-22-2006, 02:17 PM Yeah, I want a real chrome beveled, and polished over-lay that just says SS in the middle, in the SS font, and cut to fit exactly over.
is that too much to ask? :(

Smiles 05-22-2006, 03:12 PM look good
unknownsoldierX 05-22-2006, 04:03 PM Tiny, tell us which seller it was.
unknownsoldierX 05-22-2006, 04:08 PM That pic looks real. It looks like there's supposed to be a ring of light around the outside of the sticker. It seems most ppl think the sticker is supposed to cover the entire light and only llet light through the letters.
unknownsoldierX 05-22-2006, 04:11 PM Yeah, I want a real chrome beveled, and polished over-lay that just says SS in the middle, in the SS font, and cut to fit exactly over.

Oh god. That's what I want too. Let everyone (or at least me ;)) know if you find one like that.
CTCOBALTSSS 05-22-2006, 04:15 PM Here is chrome but not with SS in the middle. I love the SS idea. :twothumbs

unknownsoldierX 05-22-2006, 04:25 PM Those are vinyl stickers too. A real chrome piece would be sweet.
ajent 05-23-2006, 12:29 AM Yeah, the 2nd one is the one I bought (Still a sticker). It didn't fit correctly, and when I tried to trim it after it was already on, it messed up. from a few ft. looks great, but up close makes me want to take it off.
Smiles 05-25-2006, 12:47 PM that sucks
hope that doesnt happen to mine
plyboy-illest 05-25-2006, 12:55 PM iv heard form a few ppl who bought them , that most of them never fit right and were not cut tot he proper size... hopfuly the guy your getting it from does a good job

I just got my carbon fiber look vinal. it was fairly easy to apply, I'm pretty happy with it
biohazard 05-30-2006, 12:10 AM would look better on a CF trunk
Smiles 05-30-2006, 12:17 AM they did have black but I kinda wanted it to stand out a bit rather than blending in
