Amber light folks...step in.

Amber light folks...step in.
I just got rid of my faded/jacked up clears, for a nice OEM pair. I must say they look really classy. The clears looked ricey and I dont know why I kept them on so long. My son who is 7 said "nice dad, can you make the headlights that color too". hehe. I would like to see pics of peoples setups with the lights on. I am thinking I need some amber on the corners, to match the bumper lenses. I would really like some cefiros with amber corners. My next mod is some new foglight lenses.

Also, I think CF is played out and ricey. The only car the CF would look awesome in is the R35 Skyline due to come out in a couple of years.

i changed out the bluish white bulbs as well. i did the brighter clearance lights mod with the amber bulbs and put ambers in the corners, and went back to stock headlights and fogs. looks pretty sick and their bright as $hit. looks really good with all lights on except headlights. i personally think HIDS are gonna be out of style sooner or later unless u have a beemer or a high class vehicle. but times change as stated and rice might be in, in a few years once again.
heres sum pics i just took..the lights are more orange than anything.. like on cadillacs

silverstars are crap, if you want more than a month (dont flame me, im warning the noob). if you can afford spending several hundred dollars on headlights, go for HID
you want sylvania xtravisions for the headlights (stock is 9004)
you want normal amber bulbs (sylvania or GE) for the bumpers and corners (stock is 1156, 1157)
blue tinted bulbs put the least amount of light on the road. i had 100w PIT bulbs with a blue tint that had drastically less light on the road than the 55w xtravisions im running now

amber corners is the way to go; unfortunately i live in europe and amber lights are illegal; they must be white. i'm running my corner lights on LED's wihch match up my hid's pretty well; i re-wired the bumper lights so the whole thing lights up when i use the turn signals.

stock lights except the blinker is dual filament.
clears with all amber bulbs, blinker is rewired to be parking
unfortunetly i dont have a pic of amber bumper lights with an amber bulb in the clearance light. you cant get an amber bulb to match the stock bumper lenses no matter what.

As soon as I put my clear bumpers on, i thought that they looked ricey. I just yesterday tried to put the amber bulbs in the turn and side markers and it looks a bunch better. I think it looks better than the amber housings. Also, im going to buy amber corner bulbs to match (in the factory clear housing). I'll post a pic tomorrow.
