Advice on side markers

Take note of the arrow. Need advice on what to do, if anything, to the orange side markers and red ones in the back. Should I get clear ones? Keep them as is .. or something else? Lemme know

I am picking up some clear repeaters tomorrow for the turn signal on the fender (I dont know why they are called repeaters? I went in there and the guy was like what the hell is a repeater...). Anyhow, I appreciate any input.

I think that if you are getting clear repeaters, you should clear everything else up front but leave the red in the back.

I would shave the front side marker and just use the corner light as a blinker.

yeah i agree with swonder. shaving the front bumper marker would make the car look much better. don't clear them out then it would be honda-like.

a few ways actually, if you have cash, yuou can find a company that makes em, then buy em. or, if you are somewhat of an engineer, you can take off the orange piece, then cut out a pice the same size out of that stuff they use as flourecent light covers. It's hard to cut it without cracking it though.

Instead of shaving them, I went to Sherwin Williams and had my paint color matched. Took the can home, wet sanded the lenses a bit, sprayed the paint, then a layer of clear coat. Looks cleaner, but not as good as shaved. Just a bit more cost and time efficient.

I did that for about a month, then a motorcycle officer pulled me over and asked me if I knew I wasn't supposed to have them up front. Of course, I lied and told him the car came like that and that I would change it ASAP. I guess the only colors you can have up front, legally, white/yellow and orange. He was cool and didn't give me an $80 equipment violation, but said someone else might. Personally, I wouldn't risk running with red.

Swonder, I highly doubt that any company makes it for the G20s.
If anyone knows of any company that sells clear side markers PLEASE PLEASE & PLEASE let me know. Cheers~

I've seen em for the P10. THey do it custom. the same way I explained in a thread above. but the thing is, you have to send em your sidemarkers, and it costs somethingl ike 80 bucks.
