Default Tail light removal/cover

I am looking for someone to to either cover or replace the stock tail light mount. I bought the LED license plate frame from Custom Dynamics which has the run, brake and turn signals on the frame itself and I plan on adding small non intrusive light bars or something along the same line to help with brake/turn lighting and I am wanting to clean up the fender. Is there any options out there or am I stuck buying a new fender with the frenched inset plate mount?

I know they make a cover for the 3 holes above the light. Not sure how the new taillight mounts, but I have cut that section out before and welded a smooth piece of metal in its place. But, then you will be looking at repainting and striping the fender..... Good luck on your project.

Thanks,
That's kind of what I was expecting. I may have to run that bulky tail light until I can get some sheet metal cut and painted. Thank you kindly.

I went with Bad Dad products, rear fender, LED plate with light and their stop/turn signals. I wanted that clean slim look. It's the most minimal stuff I could find.

i might have to go with Bad Dads fender. I was looking at the Klock Werks for $130 more for the same style.

The LED signals and brake lights are very bright. You easily see them in full sun light.
