Just wondering what you guys think? i'm thinking about tinting my stock side markers? Let me know what you think. If i don't tint them i'm going to hold off for a little while and eventually buy clear corners.

just go with clear w/ amber bulbs. that's what i got. I think they look better than smoke does on a silver car.

I think blacked out side markers on silver cars look sweet.

I honestly think if you do decide to tint the side markers, you might as well tint your taillights so everything has a fresh look...

Go with the tinted or clear corners. You can get em on the cheap off of ebay or on the for sale section here every now and then.

With the silver and black theme you are going for I'd say tint them.

ok i'm doin it, that way if i don't like it on my stockers i can just get clears.
so i went out and was looking at popping them out tonight and i'm assuming the only real way to get at them is under the car or in the hole where my CAI is. it looks like a simple pop them out justy a matter of gettin at them.

Slide the clip off with a pair of pliers and slide the lens out. Real easy.

It's made by Erebuni. I don't think they make it anymore though. Last I heard they went out of business. Nice kit if you can find it though.

It's the Erebuni kit, was one of the first kits ever made for the 2gn and was never really popular. I don't think Erebuni is out of business I just think that kit was discontinued.
