side marker lenses
« on: June 01, 2010, 02:13:18 pm »
I've been looking everywhere for the all clear side marker lenses with no luck! Anybody know where to pick some up? If not I want to black em out like my headlights and taillights. I've heard of something called nightshade! Its pretty much a spray that you spray on your lenses and will black em out but I've never seen any product after and dont know if its worth it! And as always any help is appreciated

Nightshade sucks. Plus you might have trouble with local law.

thanks for all the input! that link for the nightshade will definately help if i decide to do it but not too sure how it will turn out with the amber lenses! I've found some clear lenses but they have the amber reflectors. I'll post them as soon as i finally make up my mind!

I have the clear markers for 73-80 and 81-87. I think they look great. You know who sells the clear with amber reflectors but I'm not a huge fan of them.

I had a friend of mine tint the lenses on my s10 and the amber corner lenses turned out good. I think that he mixed a little black paint in some clear and sprayed them.

I'd much rather have all clear since the body is going to be white but I found the clear with amber reflecters on   truck. I'm gonna upgrade to the HD lights and   also has a new bumper with driving and fog lights which I should get soon. I plan on replacing the amber bulbs with white bulbs and the clear side marker with the white bulb might be a little much on the side so the idea of the nightshade came into play because of the headlight covers and the black tailights. Im just getting things piece by piece but be assured as soon as assembly comes into play IT WILL BE POSTED ASAP!
