You can get rid of the border around the tabs, keep the border around the
tab body, and make the unselected tabs white like this:

First, there's no element type Lab in the mx namespace. Second, even if

Try this (assuming your Lab components are in a directory named lab):

A quick and dirty way to do it would be to just add spaces to the XML that
