Title: Crystal clear or smoked?
Post by: HuwMk2 on 10 July 2009, 21:15
Hi all. Updating my headlights, indicators and repeaters on my white gti. What would look best, crystal clears or smoked? Which would look best in your opinion? Has anyone got pics of both/either on a white mk2? Cheers.

Imo the best combo for a white car is standard oem headlights and spotlights, half smoked 16v rear lights, smoked indicators and side repeaters

i'm more of a keep it clean look. lowered 2" on factory wheels. Chrystal clear, Imo clear might give it a more detailed look. since it's your car, do what you want, They say the car compliments it's driver.

Smoked but with standard headlights looks good on white I think  :smiley:
