Lightbulb I'm about to order overlays.. thoughts?

Keep in mind I have a Black '05, what do you think about this "scheme"?

3/10 Full smoked headlight (6/10 shown in pic):

IMO leave the 3rd brake light if your going for the GTR.. you'll have some red to match the circles on your tails

as for the front.. personally i'd rather save all that money and get a black housing and keep the clears.. this way your clears will match your strip and keep the black look.. if not then get the lightest GTR for the front head light and keep the side markers clear (assuming you have clear corners)

blacking out everything = x.x... IMO

also keep in mind that the overlays are a little brownish compaired to shiny black paint at certain times of the day

GTR Tails with the 3rd brake overlay looks good. here is mine. As for the front I happen to like the way clear corners look vs the smoked corners and I am just not feeing any overlay on the healight besides eyelids. IMO I would keep the front stock but get GTR tails and the 3rd brake light... Its what I did

I was just thinking. How about if I made a 3rd brakelight overlay for you guys, that had small cicular cutouts spaced out across the overlay, call it a GTR Style 3rd brakelight overlay . Just a thought. Would any of you guys be interested in something like that?

go with the 6/10 markers if you have stock orange ones....the 3/10 might be too light. I have the 6/10 on my car and sometimes in the light you can see the "orangeness" coming thru.....if you have clear markers, the 3/10s might be okay...I'd say go with the full smoke tails, but that's just me...not feeling the GTR rears...as for the headlamps, I bought a pair of GTR overlays, but still haven't decided if I will install them....cant help you there if I cant even help myself....let us know what you decide....
