Default Anyone rocking yellow bumper lenses?!

So I need to replace my 89' rex bumper lenses...but as it turns out it is IMPOSSIBLE to find amber replacements. So, I am going to buy clears ones and paint them amber or YELLOW! Anyway, just wondering if anyone has 'em, cause I'd like to see some pics before I waste a couple hours painting them only to decide they're ugly.

Amber lenses just look like 88-89 signals to me...

...ditto...

and those are for the 88-89's, so they're amber. Only the 90-91's came with the clear bumper lenses stock.

That makes them come out orange. If you want yellow use the metalcast anodized yellow paint. Prep surface then spray, you might need a heat gun or a hair dryer to dry it up quickly and see the results. Test on a old turn signal or something.

wished i had a better pic but dig. cam is messed up. But you can see how yellow my fogs came out.

What number in here is the lense? It looks like a "28", but an item number for 28 is not listed. Also, every single color is listed as "no color" I'm assuming this means you get clear!?

#2 (LENS, L) and #8 (LENS, R) are the ones we're looking at. And they don't come in clear unless you have a 90-91, in which case, they're a different size anyway.

Just order them already! ;-)

Yeah yeah yeah....I should just order them. The ONLY remaining problem is that I have replacement 90-91 corners in amber....and I'm worried the color might be off alot. Yeah...I'm ****! BUT, it is like 12 bucks. What the hell.

On another night, I've been looking around the sight...you don't happen to know where the hatch cover could be found do ya? Maybe I am just overlooking something.
