Amber vs Clear Corners...Preference?

Does anyone here prefer the Amber corners (whether OEM or aftermarket) over clear corners?

I had someone give me his .2 today and said I should upgrade to aftermarket LED ambers OR get custom corners with amber LED's (plural) in my clear corners.

Anybody have pictures of different combination's?

To be honest, I'm content with the clear. Just looking to see what's out there.

Thoughts?

Clear corners, amber lights... LED's would be nice if displayed correctly.

I used to hate the amber corners and love the clears

Now i prefer the amber.

But the BEST choice IMO is NO sidemarkers...delete that shiet

So I guess clear corners have been "played out"? I'm leaning towards amber also.

In another forum, it seemed like:

east coast preferred clears
west coast preffered amber

Is because the west is more into the JDM look?

This is NOT a geographical flame war BTW.

I like the clears, but I can't find a decent amber LED that looks good. I have some 11 SMT LEDs from V-LEDS.com right now, but they don't fill out the lens as well as the stock amber bulb that came with it. They're brighter for sure, but not as diffused.
