DIY 5$ X5 G05 Side reflector delete
I wanted to share with you a cheap cosmetic modification I just did to hide the horrible orange side marker / reflectors
1 - I bought from AliExpress a black tint film wrap sticker 2 - Clean the reflector with some rubbing alcohol to improve the sticking of the film 3 - Cut a 3 x 12 inches film 4 - Remove the back of the film to expose the sticky part 5 - Apply the sticker on the reflector 6 - Remove the protective layer on the sticker 7 - Press the sticker on the reflector to expose the contour of the reflector 8 - Cut carefully with a blade the film around the reflector and remove the excess around |

I've done this. If you use a heat gun first (a blow dryer will probably work too) the film will start to wrap around the reflector too.

No, it will kind of just melt around it so you don't see edges.
