Clear Corners, Dirty 8

I did hesitate in buying them b/c I like the "flush" look of the oem's BUT I have to say what a difference!
Wonderful upgrade to any color 8.

Nice! Better get some oil cooler screens ...... they passenger side cooler look dinged up. I like my Racing Beat screens and suggest getting this: http://www.racingbeat.com/resultset....r=screen%20set

More info on other pages at their web site.

looks good, I just installed some recently myself. Did you use the orange bulbs that came with the new clear corners or stick with the old clear bulb? What rims are those too?

They didn't come with bulbs so I bought some Amber colored. looks fine and i should be 'legal'?

Or you could order these from Dennis at DLS Customs a vendor here. Here are a couple different pictures to show them with strakes painted to match the car and painted to match the strakes in the headlight assemblies. If you don't like the strakes he makes the screens seperately.

Clear sides are a must

No too into the strakes but thank for the idea.

On the 2nd pix with the red strakes though. Who makes the "mesh" front grill? DLS customs?

The strakes are extra as an integrated add on. The oil cooler screens are sold seperately from the fog light strakes, so you don't have to get them if you no likey!
