Sedan owners who want clear corners...

I've emailed this company, and they haven't gotten back to me yet, but judging by the pic...these corners are for the sedan and not the coupe as the bulb placement in this pic. This appears to be a different kind of corner than the ones from www.japanparts.com
IMO I like these much better...they are more clear and less 'foggy' than the others.

Just wanted to post this for the Sedan owners and these will be the ones I'll be getting for my coupe when available...which reminds me that I'll need to sell the ones I bought from japanparts.com this week to someon who's interested.

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

These look very nice.. Different definetly.. never seen clearcorners like this... but the one thing about these clearcorners is that you will just see the bulb lit up.. the foggyness of other clearcorners spreads the light out..

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

These are called EURO clear corners. Like Pes said, it'll let a lot of light out and if you use superwhite bulbs, the cops may not like it so much [img]/w3timages/icons/tongue.gif[/img] Nice non the less.


It's still a G thang!!

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

I have yet to see a smoke-colored clear corner lens for darker cars.. I guess if you just put a strip of tint over the light it would look cool too for black cars.. haha anyone wanna try?

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

Pesti... that's a good Idea. I might try that when I get my car out the shop. Put some 5% on them to match the black. That would look tight. Until the first ticket....

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

they dont reflect after that,
technically they have to reflect "amber"
so any clear corner can get you in trouble.

If you look at BMW and AUDI's sport packages, the clear lenses are only the turn signals, on the bumpers they still have a clearance light in amber.

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

Yeah but.. $hitt..... Ive always had clear corners.. no problems... even when i got a ticket for tint and had to go get it inspected.. no problem.. if you go by the book.. alot of stuff isnt legal.. for example, do you konw if you modify the exaust tips on a exaust its illegal? .... so basiclly what ive gone with is if it swhite in front, and red in teh back.. its all good... ive never even heard of anyone having problems with their front clear lenses....

but anyways.. dont do it if you dont wanna get a fix it ticket for it i guess.. I dont wanna be responsible for your clear lens hehe

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

I've found that if you use the stock, clear bulb, not only does it look smooth with say, these corners, but a stock hallogen bulb gives off an off-amber color, which I've never had a problem with. I've been messed with by cops whenever I've used a xtreme white, etc bulb...but never w/ the stock hallogen in the clear corners...

Re: Sedan owners who want clear corners...

Today I received the clear corners from strictlyz.com. (Thanks Yuichi!) My G35 sedan's exterior is the ivory pearl color. I've not seen the clear corners on the ivory pearl so I'm thinking about taking a before and after picture for those that might be interested. I'll post a follow-up message if/when I do.

The pics are at http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4290453161

The main concern I had was that the color from the amber bulb wouldn't show through the entire lense at night. Rest assured it does. Whew! And it looks very nice.
