Amber corners look sweet! Did you paint the lenses or does someone make amber corners?
The yellow fogs sort of throw it off though, too many colors in front.

idk about the headlights with amber corners. No hard feeling but it remind me of a civic or accord with those corner amber and yellow fogs. Maybe keep the fog lights stock clear i think it will look alot better.

i went with the amber corners since i was a big fan of the toyota chaser. ill probably end up redoing the foglights later on but smoking them to match the gray bottom.

Don't let them get you down. I did the same thing on my 4th gen max and I got a mostly negative reaction. I think it's a very jdm look (I know it didn't come with amber in Japan).
It really makes the car stand out IMO. It's things like this that set you apart from every other lowered black LS.

Ambers are different. If it was me ill paint the grille trim black and tint the fogs a bit so everything matches IMHO.
