Post by: black90 on 13 February 2008, 21:10

Should I go clear or not?

Part of me likes the orange look!   :grin:
If so where are the best quality items from?

Yeah, I don't mind spending money for quality, don't want a loose fit or seals to perish in no time.
Also don't like to look of some of the repeaters on ebay.
Where were yours from?

I think it would look much better if you go smoked as they'll match your 16 valve rear lights if not i'd stick with the orange ones, sorry i'm not a big fan of the clear but thats me

Clear indicators look odd in my humble opinion  :smiley:
If anything get some new orange ones, this is what i plan to do anyway!  :wink:
