Can't find DIY on LCI style update for E90 tail lights (red lens tape over reverse)

Someone gave their tail lights an updated LCI look by using red lens tape over the reverse light and cutting out a small rectangle in it. I know I saw it on here but I've searched every key word I can think of and can't find it. If anyone remembers I'd appreciate a link!

**UPDATE - FOUND IT!**

Titled "Alternative to blacklines," no wonder I couldn't find it. Here it is for anyone else interested in trying this.

Here's a comparison of LCI tail lights vs. Pre-LCI tail lights with the update. Looks great IMO!

Not sure what the car in the pic has, posted it for reference only. The DIY results were good, I thought it looked very OEM. No one recalls a link for it?
