Clear corners on amber headlights?

[claudio]

I did it and really did not like the look. It drove me bonkers untill I replaced the headlights with clears. My suggestion is keep the amber corners it really looks bogus with just the clear corners.

Thanks man. I appreciate the input. I may try out the sidemarkers because it's not too much money. I think the clear tails were worth the money.

Pkid, If your box is black i would have suggested that you black out the front ambers using Black Spray Tint. Its easier to get away with this "de-amber" technique if your car is black. Also, it is a cheap, easily removable way to cover that amber signal.

spine, do you buy this black tint at Autozone? Do you just mask it off and spray away? Does it not rub off when you wash the car?

you can also paint them silver.
I posted a pic on the show and tell of a guy who painted his rears and rewired the the unpainted portion to work as a turn signal.

Its rare to find Spray Tint paint at Auto Zone. You can either use "Pactra" Brand Spray tint(this is often used for Model RC Cars). Pactra is often available in your local Hobby Shop. There is another Spray Tint which is Made in Japan(Unknown brand- all the text is in japanese), ive seen a couple of the Japanese Spray Tint sold at Ebay($19). Spray Tints wont rub off when washed with water. The tints are easily erased using Acetone. You can also control the amount of tint depending on the number of coats you apply....Go to BENZWORLD.ORG, there is a great step by step spray tinting article done on a ML 320. I believe the article is on the main 1st page of Benzworld.org.
