Default clear corners or not?

aight I have clear corners currently on my yellwo ITR.. and it's bugign me cus I can;t quite match the headlights... PIA xtreme white the Japanese piaas to the clears.. I'm thinkign bout giving it one more try and getting the wedges and the sidemarkers from piaa which they say are made to look identical to the piaa xtreme whites.. so shoudl I got for one more try or say **** it and put the stockl corner in there or the third option keep the clear corner but put the amber bulb in there which at night looks nice but not as much during the day.. so vote away.

Here's my solution for you, **** all the super whites, hiper extreme bulbs, and get yourself some HID's and leave the stock corners on there. That's what I did with my ITR, and I'm absolutly loving it.

I like lightly smoked clears with amber bulbs...its a nice clean look. I just think the stock orange clashes too much on a PY ITR. Smoked looks nice if you have a c/f hood, and running gun metal wheels. I like the yellow/dark gun metal/carbonfiber color scheme. The stock orange throws that off IMO.

do what u want and screw the poll
if u follow everyone here you'll have a 1-usdm itr, with oem kit, gunmetal or flat black and or ULTRA lightweight rims (rotas, LOL) or a JDM front itr (with the similar mods as the usdm)...

and plus ur having trouble with ur matching--
i have the solution

do the wiring trick so that the main larger bulb has both of its filaments illuminated....(it's very easy and it works, it makes the light bright, as if signalling, but permanently......)

yeah, there u go

This seems to be the new topic of honda-tech. First altezzas, then slipstreams, and now corners. Do whatever you like. One thing I have figured out in life is it doesn't matter what other people think. It is you body, your brain, use it to your best extent.

Sorry for releasing the steam. I am not having a good day.
