Lighting: Clear or Smoked?

[alpine wiess 325is]

I'm most likely going to change my amber corner lights in the front, to something less ugly, so i was thinking what would look better on a alpine white 325is? Smoke or Clear? I'm leaning towards more to the smoked one....

I personally like clear just a little better on the alpine white BMWs. If you decide to buy anything be ver cautious of ebay. There is a good chance that that corners could be cheap plastic and of poor quality. That being said not all the stuff you find on ebay is bad, but the saying "you get what you pay for" usually holds true on ebay just like other places.

I've never really liked any kind of smoked lights. They are barely lit in bright daylight

Here we are again, in the same boat, guess what I can't decide either! I keep looking @ these pics and I still can't decide! I like the smoke too!

Personally i like clear lights, smoked one don't always look that good.

[mullethunter3]

+1 for clear

[Dr1ve4fun]

Clear for a white car.

Clear or amber for a white car.

Johnny smoked but not blacked for your car.

[nick_318is]

I think clear looks better in most situations on any color, smoked is better with black, i have to say I really like the amber lights with black (like in amanda's sig), but clears don't look too bad either. To each his own, let us know what you decide to get.

I agree, each car has its own feel to it and a bit of an energy or aura that surrounds it, if you will. Each owner must find and interpret his/her own cars aura and try to translate that into the correct corner light housing color. Choose wisely grasshopper.

for the white I would get clear

[alpine wiess 325is]

well, thanks alot guys and gals...you know why i want the smoke color, cuz i think the smoked taillights look hot versus the clear ones....and i want them to match my front lights.

[alpine wiess 325is]

This is what im talking about, look how nice it looks on a white car....
