Side markers

Hello, I want to delete the side markers or have black ones put in. After looking for countless hours I could only find Clear ones or "smoked" ones. The Clear will look like Sh*t on a black car and the smoked ones don't even look that smoked. Any one know of any other options?

Thank you,
Vonn

Better check and see what your local DMV requires. Some states require that they be a certain color - amber or clear.

Have some covers (replacements) made out of carbon fiber. Then you can either leave them or paint them.
