Default Amber corners or clear?

Next small step: corner lights. I like the amber but don't see a lot of cars w/ those. Anyone have pics of good clear corners and ambers?

i think it depends on the color of car and what accents the color of the car best.

amber! only because the aftermarket clears never seem to match the headlamps and it looks kinda ricey IMO. now if they matched like JDM cars that wouldnt be an issue. and amber corners with some amber bumper lights is sex!

clear or stock. ambers throw it off.

I'm old school early 90s look. The "JDM amber" look never appealed to me. OG US style was clear corners from the beginning and thats what I'm sticking with.

I had clear ones painted yellow with krylon stained glass paint. Looked sweet, but I broke em.

I bought smoke tint clear corners, didn't like em.

I bought clear corners, didn't look right on a white car.

I bought the stock ones, but one of the clips was broken and they never sat straight. I would like to go back to stock.

I am currently running amber corners, and like them alot.

My favorite besides the stock, are my old yellow ones, cause almost nobody has yellow corners.

Yellows:

i bought a set of aftermarket corners and ended up sending them back because they didnt fit as good and other defects.

stock looks best imo

This is my car that they'll be going on. Sorry for the bad pic I took it w/ my phone. I really like the clear ones but I really like the amber ones too. And I think they'll both look fine but just can't decide.

i may have a set of stock EDM/JDM clear corners for sale soon. they are the real deal and dont have the mounting screw holes at the back like the USDM ones, just the tab at the top for the screw and the 2 parts on the back that slide into the fittings on the front 1/4 panels ala EDM/JDM EF.

im in the UK but would be willing to ship internationally if i get this donor EF to fix the theft damage on mine.

actually the screws in the rear just indicate that it was an 88-89, usdm 90-91's had just the single screw behind the headlight.

i vote stock or amber. clears look a lil wierd because its hard to getthem to match the headlights. and most of them look ricey. but thats my opinion. not many people can rock clears and have them look nice. like i said. majority of clears look ricey. try stock.

clears are stock EDM/JDM corners? maybe the ones youve seen are aftermarket and not made as good?
