Clear or smoked signals for DiamandSh.??
« on: December 05, 2007, 10:04:53 PM »
Hey everybody,
  I'm in the process of getting turn signals and everything redone.  I was wondering, what do you guys think it terms of smoked or clear on the DS ?  I feel very mixed about, if you guys have pics of yours to prove which is better, let em show!!!

e30 are meant to be old school, id keep them orange... i can show you pictures if you want it looks very nice, hehe

if not, i'd probably go smoked so everything stays dark and sober. just a matter of personal taste really

well, alpine white would probably be the only color that would make me want to change the original old school orange ones for clears.

I like it alot!  It looks really clean! for black you just have to keep it clean and subtle. I think me starting a thread like this clearly indicates that I'm neurotic as well!  I just want it to be perfect!!!!!

Then I must be psychotic.  I got euro trim, painted it alpine.  Then got clears, painted the bulbs silver and the screws black.  I like the look but don't take my word for it.  Ask asubimmer, :D.
