what color do you guys think mine are?


from my understanding....the green tails you could buy from Carson...weren't as green as the sportdesign green headlights...I notice the green in my SD headlights most when its cloudy..and the 03 SD headlights are by far the most coveted...mine are green and its nothin special...all these damn gs headlights get ruined by condensation.

I think I prefer clear, the green is alright i guess. But if I had the choice between a new set of clear/green, I would go for clear. Mine are clear, but they need polished

SO NOW THE BIG QUESTION lol, actually I might be one of the few that wonders this lol. is the color in the lens or in the reflectors??? So the green ones actually have clear lenses??? thanks

the chrome shroud inside has a hint of green in it so the whole headlight gets that green tint.
