Found a bolt protruding out from the bottom of my front diff cover. Turns out to be one of the bolts from the ring.

Hoping that was sarcasm. Yes, some people do use tape. You should use VHT Nightshade. It's a spray-on tint for lights so you aren't cutting your output. I did mine the right way and used VHT, but I put on too many coats, and my low beams were pretty much useless. If you do use tape, you're completely blocking that output. Personally, I won't do it again on my next Jeep, but I'm not saying you can't.

I understand, but don't be lazy. If you decide you like it, do it the right way. It's a safety thing.
