Total for the lip shipped at painted was 400, I love it. It took a while to get it all done but the end result is just awesome

Pretty sexy, nicely done. And are those Wolfie's clear turns, and would you care to direct me where you got them?

Those are the same ones that I have, got them off ebay. Brand was Depot Lighting. They also come in a package deal (clear turns/side markers). And you can get them either clear or smoked.

Thanks guys. I think I like my blacked out side markers, but the clear front turns are definitely necessary. I did notice that it's only the bulb that's amber, so has anyone ever switched to a clear bulb and made them clear that way?

http://superlumination.com/1156_1157.htm

go here, scroll down to about 1/4 the way down find "18 Powerful Wide Angle High Flux LEDS" They're 12.99 each, get 2 of them and swap them into what you have now. This is what i did for my car. It looks amazing and if you have hids it really flows together. The only down side to this is since led's are such a low resistance your blinkers will flash very fast like when you have a burnt out bulb, it's perfectly fine and I've gotten use to it just annoying at first. Make sure you choose 1157, that's what is needed for our front turn signals. I recently took out the white side markers for my old amber ones but now they're tinted, it flows better with the curren tails imo.

I'm gonna keep my side markers blacked out just to stay with my tinted tail lights...so many balla m0dz, OMG!

Thanks for the hookup Freddy...I do like the housing for the clear turns more, so I might as well pick those up since the bulbs are just as expensive.

i personally didn't like the bulbs they send you with those, they make it look like a clown lol, i like the super white ones, if you have stock headlights you should just keep the bulbs that are already in them they're the same color as your headlights and will flow better imo

But thanks guys...I guess I took 'clear turns' a bit too literally. I didn't know only the housing was clearer. kindasad.gif

I've seen my car with ss3 splitters and now a toms lip and the toms lip just looks 10x better, i hate how there's the gap underneath with the splitters.

i personally dont like the projectors, they make the car look like a cheap ricer, no offense to those who have them. just not my style. And no it wouldnt fit the c-one bumper unless you modded it.
