Why go through all the trouble of spending an hour taping up your glass crossing your fingers and praying to god the paint wont bubble up or tear when you remove the tape. If it messes up to bad you have to trash your glass vs just trashing a piece of card board. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

because if you pull it off (pretty easy to do) it looks 100 times better than a piece of card board.

I've done both the cardboard behind the glass and painting the glass.
Painting the back of the glass is way better. Looks perfect and correct. 2 coats of black paint makes the perfect bezel.
