Idea: Clear rear bumper reflectors for 2008 Lancers

I was looking at the rear of my silver lancer one day, and realized how nasty the red rectangle bumper reflectors look. I love our taillights, but the red reflectors are a little bit too much.

Notice how our 08's have a clear center brake light lens. Well, I hope someone releases a clear reflector for the rear bumper. I think it would look much cleaner! I think it would definitley help out the silver/white lancers, but not so much the red ones!

Anybody agree? Opinions?




Here is an example. I installed a set on the rear bumper of my 95 stang. Looks much cleaner:

I agree. I have a black gts, and painted my reflectors black to blend in with the car. I would like to see someone make a clear lens with the capability of adding a bulb. I would rather have reverse lights mounted in the bumper, and put red bulbs or leds where the stock reverse lights are, and tie them in with the brake lights.
