My DIY with using black electrical tape to cover all "bling-bling"
It's not the most perfect job, just a quick DIY in order to mount into car for so I can make further tests.
I have covered:
- side aluminium frame
- front lens surrounding "logoes / writings "
- lens surrounding orange led ring
- Panorama X2 front logo.
Now it's looks more stealthy than before, however can not be considered as a "stealth-design" dashcam.
I did not cover edge of lens surrounding and rest of glossy body. Those are the parts which are still may reflect light and bring unwanted attention.
In near future ( when I will have more time ), I try to paint full body into black matte.
