let us know how you get on fitting it !
i flatted mine down and repainted them but the paint is coming off again after a few months maybe the tape would be a bit more durable

a lad i know used black electrical tape and for an extremely
cheap way of doing it, it does look spot on
i only noticed cos he told me and after looking right up close
i can just about notice it. if its done well then i doubt
anyone would ever notice
you go any pics scotty?
