Clear or Black side markers?

Which side markers would look better with my G? Clear or Black?
--(The pic is not of my G but it is almost identical to that one)

Do you have a link to where you bought the dark ones? I like the fact that they are sorta dark but not too dark either, Ive seen others but they're too dark but yours seem perfect

Dim Headlights

I have an 04 g35 coupe I just bought it 2 weeks ago. And the headlights are terrible. They're aftermarket headlights and they're the projectors. But my visability at night is literally 3 feet in front of my car. Before I take the car to HID pro tomorrow what could the issue? should I upgrade to a 55watt or just change the headlights all together?

The difference is that mine are opened up clear corners (cardinal sin, I know) and the back plastic piece is black instead of plastic grey.

You might find similar ones on amazon called "Smoked corners."

Are the headlights just really foggy? Autozone headlight restore kits can save the day.

I bought the turtle wax headlight restore kit and they're actually very clear. So I really think its just an issue with the HIDs. Its so bad I have to ride around with the high beams on and I still cant see.

I highlighted your problem. Get OEM headlights and enjoy much improved lighting. 06/07 Coupe projectors are the best option.

What about opening them up and then resealing them to better keep them waterproof? That could possibly work



And then sell your fake chit for authentic like plastidippinG lolollolol
