outstanding! you only notice the gap up close. i'm headed over to ebay to pick up a pair. Thanks for the great idea! I'm going to play around with them a little to see if I can reduce the gap any, but it should be less noticable on a white car anyway.

I used the guy that has em for $11 SHIPPED.
Odd...although this looks like him, the pic is different. You'll notice these are for a Honda. Just ask about the gs300 part number LBP-LGS30098C-A
Ooops Forgot Here's the vendor's email:
cosmo_dynamic@yahoo.com
My records show 14 not 11. Oh well.

If you go this route, just hold them up to the car and decide for your self if you want to do it. Nothing to lose. Well, I guess 11 bucks if you decide against it

This is another inexpensive vendor...of course, these are the Hinda lights. You 'd have to ask about GS300 lights.
These are $14 shipped.

I saw those GS/IS, etc. clear side markers on ebay. So what exactly does beveling consist of? I would prefer to modify the side marker than modify my bumper.

It's off a Daewoo from a junk yard. 6 bucks. It almost fits perfectly on its own, but yuo will need to trim about an inch from each side. Since its plastic, as are all grills, trimming is easy. Dremel it right off. I also trimmed 1/8 of an inch across the top...I didnt need to , but it made for a tighter fit.

You defdinitley could easily rtrim 1/4 of an inch off the length of the side marker. All you would have to do is seal it up. Make sure you cut the end that faces the driver not the front. You will need to seal by gluing a piece of plastic. My bumper was easier to cut, and like i said , I think if I replace the oprignal side marker, it won't be noticable

My GS clear side markers came in today and trying to do what xcelr8 did. I will take some pics comparing the SC and GS side markers. I might have to have the side marker sit on top/above. I'm cautious about beveling because I didn't really want to mess the paint up too bad, but my bumper needs to be repainted bad anyway so I might end up doing this. I really don't even know what tool I'd need to bevel the edge of the bumper. Also, the two screws from the SC side marker don't fit on the GS side marker perfectly. I'm going to be working on this this weekend.
