  • To change bumper lights or not????

    Ok, so I've been thinking about this for the past couple of days now and Im not really sure what to do. Should I get the clear ones??? Should I get the black ones???? Or should I just leave them alone and not do anything???? My car is Green so I really have no idea what should I go with and I do plan on repainting my car pretty soon too. I would like to get some opinions from you guys. Im more into Classic Muscle and now Im getting into 4th gens. Here's a picture of what my car looks like now.

    Well I have clear ones and I think it made the car look 100 times better. I went with clear because black ones are what i usally see on camaros, I like to set my car aside. But anyway I say do it man!

                i vote leave the stock corners and just niteshade them and your tails to go with your tint and black berger. that's how mine is and i couldn't be happier with it.

                and btw, i went through several pairs of smoked/clear aftermarket corners and they always leaked or the bulbs didn't work correctly, so i went to my stock corners and called up the VHT fairy :D

                    Yeah I vote for the black ones. Or there are clears that look black when they're off like mine.

                    However, i'm going to put a light layer of niteshade on them to rid the outlining plastic that shows up real white.

                      Clear corners would go nicely with the chrome wheels. You should also look into getting some stainless inserts for that berger panel.

                        Thanks for the comments and opinions guys. Man this is hard because I really like how all 3 look on my car. The factory ones look great, the black ones look sweet, and the clear ones look awesome with the green of my car. Solocamaro95 your car looks sweet dude and I really like the way those clear markers look on the car, Ballermaro13 Dude I've been wanting to do that Nitesade spray to my tail lights but I'm kinda spooked on doing it because I read that if a Police officer wants to be an a** he could write up a ticket, have you had any problems with that??? Blizzard242 Man those black ones look sweet!!!

                            moderation is key man. with the niteshades you can keep applying thin layers until its the desired darkness, so you're in complete control. don't be afraid to dive right in, there is a great write-up on here and plenty of guys like myself that have done it that can give you any pointers if you're in trouble. i had never touched my lights or painted anything on my car before and i went for niteshading my corners, sidemarkers, third brake, painted my berger panel, and swapped in/shaded '95 style tails with no problem. just take ur time and it will work out.

                            the best advice i can give you though --- get a spare set of things you're unsure about like the lights. pick up an extra set of tail lights and experiment on shading the extra pair, and if you ever get any hassel about it, you can always trade them back out for the stockers. i still have my stock tails, berger panel, and plenty of other parts that i switched out if i ever need them.

                            but to ease your mind, i have darker tint than i should, dark shaded corners and tails, along with a crazy loud full exhaust and i've never had any police issues **knock on wood**. so just make sure it's all done in moderation and you'll be fine my man.
