I painted the orange reflectors on the side view mirrors flat black. I used krylon paint, I think it was $4 for the can. Huge difference. Looks a lot better. No pictures though as it's been raining pretty much everyday.

Thanks for posting pics when you can. I'd be interested in doing this.

I took the wood divider idea and modified it a tad.....for 20 bucks in hardware I split the board I was using, added a hinge, some handles and a swing lock to secure the board when extended. Then I added a small extension that also folds down. So far it's been very functional

Thanks to all those that offered this bed divder idea, including CAPTAIN_MATH for starting this thread and his first post!
