hmmm interesting idea... but it doesnt look as "clean" tho. The only thing that really bugs me with the clears all the way around are those stupid side marker "euro" wedges that stick out on the left and right sides (on the stock sidemarkers, there are no wedges). Otherwise, my car looks much nicer with the clears.

yeah, didn't realize that they would stick out like that (why is that? ) and then I thought it over and decided that maybe they would look cool and more unique if I left the original in.

What are PIAA super plasmas? Those are fake 120 watt HID Have had them for 2 years now. Makes it much better at night. I have compared them to real HID and cannot see a big enough difference to justify the risk of modify them with those retrofit kits based on the lack of auto leveling and beam pattern correction

post the pic of your car at an angle. Then we would be able to see how the overall thing looks

theres no way to make the stock side markers clear eh? they're dyed orange? Not like the fog lights where you can break the yellow glass?

They are orange plastic like most cars. When you say break the yellow glass, what do you mean?

I have factory fog lights but they are of the traditional variety and are "white" halogen.
