Default for those who have done DIY 94-97 amber corners

did you paint your OEM corners (the half orange/half clear) or did you paint your clear corners........ i'm asking because i want to paint my OEM corners all amber, but i am concerned that once they are painted, one half will look darker orange than the other because one half was orange to begin with. anyway, tell me which you used and post pics if you got em

Clears work too, but you won't have a reflector (for those living with the harrasment cops). Here's one more pic just so you can see.

Granted my car is not an integra but I used clear corners and Krylon Stained Glass Amber Spray Paint to do mine.
