Red out fast key and brake light
I have always hated the big shiny fast-key button on the back of my X, so I ordered some Oracal 8300 graphic film, color code 031 from Pacific Coast Paint (same stuff I used to red-out the tails on my RSX). Installation was pretty easy, 6 plastic snaps to remove the trunk insulation, 1 metal pressure clip to remove the fast key module, and 2 10mm bolts to remove the brake light. The hardest part is getting the vinyl to form over curves without folding too much, it helps to heat it up with a hair dryer. It matches RR pretty well and would take 5-10 mins to remove if needed, so I'm happy with it. Now I just need to decide if I should remove the mitsu emblem...

i took mine out so I could wrap the vinyl around the edge of the fast key button, but if you only wanted to go to the edge of it you could leave it on. It seriously only took about 5 mins to remove though.

Yes I did. My initial plan was to cut out a hole for the black rubber button, but after applying the vinyl I just left it. I'll see if I can get a closer shot, these were the best my iPhone could do this morning...
