Has anyone "black housed" the DRL LEDs on the '13 +?

I've been searching and searching and I can't find anything on this. I'd like to open the LED housings in the bumper under the headlights and black out the inside

I've been searching and searching and I can't find anything on this. I'd like to open the LED housings in the bumper under the headlights and black out the inside of those to match the Headlights when I get around to do them. Has anyone had any experience in doing this?

Check out user Scone. He tinted his DRL's and they look badass on a black Z.

He said he did it the same way as baking the headlights, you should reach out to him for more info
