I've seen these before on Amazon. During the day, they are gloss black and at night they are a very bright white. Using these on the "rear of a moving vehicle" at night will get you a ticket in South Carolina. Trust me on this one. :lecturef_smilie:
Off topic ,but were did you get the mud flap ?Quote:

What with all the utility vehicle with all kinds of reflective tape and decals in all colors, its not an issue. Most trucks have red/white reflective tape all over.
Large trucks are required by the Feds to have so many square inches of WHITE reflective material on the rear. This is applied at the factory before the trucks leave. That was one of the things I had to make sure of as a QA inspector. Why the double standard? I have been running these black/white reflective decals on all my bikes for years and all over the U.S. and Canada with nary a second glance from any officers. Not about to remove them now.
StreetGlo also sells that material in stripes or sheets that you can cut yourself.

South Carolina vehicle illumination law.
All lighting devices and reflectors mounted on the rear of any vehicle shall display or reflect a red color, except the stop light or other signal device, which may be red, amber or yellow and except that the light illuminating the license plate or the light emitted by a back-up lamp shall be white.
Ok so I`ll never go there at night ��Quote:

I don't have a dog in this fight so my comments are only just curious. Why would you not just have red reflective color instead of white on the rear? For us old guys, white is for the front and red is for the rear. Seeing white from the rear would tend to confuse unnecessarily..... Jim
Just look at any big rig and you'll see red and white reflective tape all over them. Front, back and sides. As mentioned, California have reflective plates. Many utility vehicles have white as well as other reflective tape and emblems all over them. I had white on my ST. No problems.
I am merely citing the law. Personally, I don't give a damn and I'm not going to get into a pissing contest over this. Yes, there is a difference for lighting between trucks and personal vehicles.Quote:

Answer isn’t needed I was just curious and it probably depends on the officer, the day, time of day etc. Thanks for having looked out for us.Quote:
