Thanks for the response. When you say, "...so the tape won't overlap" you mean so the tape won't put over the top edge of the skirt, right?

I have the diffuser painted a matte black before (a very crappy replica piece) and the contrast wasn't enough for me. I see his looks either a grey or some silver.
