Not bad actually. I think it looks better than the orange and turquoise at least. One of the guys from a group drive I went on this weekend bought the real oem clear side markers and corners for his amber headlights, and then smoke tinted the remaining amber on the headlight. Looked ok to me.

You're certainly entitled to your opinion. But maybe you could be a bit less of a putz when expressing them.....
Happy New Year!

It looks good when you think it is just clear lights, but when you realize it's grey, it's kind of like hmmm...
I agree, the amber looks BAD.

its not gray, its the same color as the headlights, so there is no difference, unless you think that the headlights themselves in general, mine or any other, look gray

It looks pretty decent for 3 bucks IMO. Obviously, not as good as the real deal but for the coin spent it's better than the amber.

Looks good to me, how about some close up pics!
With lights on and off. I think on my Arctic silver, that might look nice. Was it made for lights or just generic aluminum spraypaint.
