Reflectors

I don't have any reflectors on my car right now. Does anyone know where I can get some clear ones that stick? Almost looking for a vinyl sheet.

y?

well I park on the road a lot no street lights. My tails are coverd with vinyl and my fronts are cleared. Would like something I can put in my backup light area and my front area where its clear without having it look like there is something there.

Maybe take off the vinal? :unsure:

If not, I'm not sure what to do

there is no way to put stick-on reflectors on your car and not have them look gay.

thats what I thought. I well find a way. I was thinking of putting LED lights in my cleared area that blink every 2 sec like a alarm light when the car is off. Same with my tails. This you can't see and might look cool. What do you guys think?

i doubt people are going to see it from much of a distance, but it's better than putting reflectors on...

lol the ones I have can be seen up to 500 yards away. Very bright.

that might look kewl but it may also put your car in more danger of theft... When I see flashing lights in a place I didnt expect them, especially leds, I tend to want to check them out. I dunno what it is but blinking leds are hypnotic.

But a quick google search for "reflective paint" did bring up some interesting results.

^^^ Agreed. May attract more attention to your car. Someone who is smart will know if you paid money to do something like that then you probably have expensive items in your car. Can't you just get a sticker you can put on at nite and take off in the morning. People might hit your car whether or not there is something reflective on it.

There are street lights were I live. They do not let anyone park on the side of the street anymore due to people's cars getting hit.

^Thats an idea. If I could get that in black that would be cool. I well have to see.

You can get reflective vinyl in a very dark color then get some kinda decal made up, maybe Naich can even get aleromod.com decals made outta that kinda vinyl.

You know I was wondering that myself. I saw some people put poop in their head lights like chrome when the painted the trim black. Looked kinda cool. If I could do something like that it would be off the hook I think. I well look into this idea.

Your car looks black from your pic.. so just pick up some black reflective vinyl. Maybe do a 3rd brake light overlay out of it. I just got F*ed in the A for not having reflectors by the damn cops this weekend.

Or just buy some cheap reflective strips and put them on a magnet. Stick 'em on front and back corners and night and take 'em off in the morning. You can get magnet sheets cheap at any office supply place. Those aren't strong enough to scratch your car unless you're really stupid about it.

^ I should keep those in my car and tell the damn cops I put them on when i'm parked. I wonder if the anuses would leave me alone them.

P.S. They aren't anuses when they are saving me from being murdered, just when they pull me over.

^Good plan.

Exactly. 'Cause state cops in downtown DETROIT don't have better things to do than pull me over only for window tint. I bet someone got shot while they were busy harassing me.

Kick the person who has the garage space out on their ass

Good idea but the damn kids on my street will steal them all the time lol. Need someting that won't come off easy. I well just do some GFX or Text for the car in this stuff. Cop pulls me over I say I didn't know and I'm sorry. Whats the worst thing they can do lol. Give me a 50.00 fine or say don't do it again? The only thing I am going to have a hard time passing is safty but I have the corners and when it comes time I well put them back in just for the day.

You still have state inspections there?
