Which clear corners do you think look best?
OK, here's my problem: a while back my driver's side clear corner fell off on the freeway. I'm ready to buy some new ones, but the only person on eBay that sells the kind I had is out of stock. So here's my question, should I wait until they get them back in, or buy them from another guy I just found ($55 as opposed to $36), or should I get the "crystal" clear corners? Here are some pics:
this is a pic of what I had:
this is the "crystal" kind:
I can't figure out if the crystal clear will look OK with my euro headlights or not. What do you guys think? Which would you buy?

One is in a million pieces on the freeway.
I agree with Zed- They look the most authentic. But, then, I like my car pretty much bone stock. These do look better than the orange ones, though.

So, without smoked headlights, I'm thinking that smoked corners would look stupid, which means I'm back to the "frosted" corners. Is that what you have Chris?

Are those frosted or clear? The smoked version they sell looks like a smoked version of what I had, but the clear version looks "crystal" to me. The pic is too fkn small:

Anyways, I have smoked Corner lights on the car right now. I might ditch them and get clear ones once I get my hands on some Hella Headlights.
For the color of your car - Smoked might look nice especially with the blacked out grill. Frosted ones would be my second decision.

I can't tell from the picture if those are clear or frosted. They seem to be slighty frosted though. Clear would expose the amber bulb in the picture a lot more.

Yeah, the 300E had smoked Euro's but the E420 now just has stock Bosch headlights. I think the smoked corners I have paired with my headlights look fine. Just look at that sig!!!
You just need to make everything flow better on the car and smoked ones will look really good. Just my opinion. Frosted ones are nice too so don't get me wrong.
Yeah

also, I have a question for ya'll, especially Matt since he just did it recently: Do you think a blacked out grill would look good on my car? It's the car in my sig. I can't decide if it would be a good contrast or be funny-looking.
