I'm doing the Clear Front Turn Signals Mod soon, but I'm undecided on whether to buy the regular clear corners or the Diamond-cut ones. What is everyones opinion on each?

Thanks,
-Nick

I have the regular ones, but I've heard that the diamond ones are a bit clearer.

I have regulars and they looks sweet. Don't let the pics fool you. Diamond cut may be a little more clearer, but I don't think its worth the extra $$.

Agree with 98Blax...

Ask Wicked how much they cost?
It's $$$ and if you want the look and gots dough to flash around (for clears of all things), go for it. If you decide to get diamond clearcorners, u should go all out and get matching diamond-cut clearance corners too.

i had the diamond cut ones... and then someone stole them. so now i just have the regular ones. i don't think the extra cost is justified for such a negligible difference between the regular and diamond cut clear corners, especially with the risk of the pieces getting stolen. the price difference is better used elsewhere, imho.

I have the diamond cut clears and they look much nicer than the original clears IMO. My friend has a blue max w/regular clears and mine is black. There is a noticeable difference, the diamond cut clears seem to go perfectly w/ the 98 headlights. My only problem is that the amber bulbs that came w/my clears are significantly brighter than my cornering lights beside the headlamps. I think a different shade of amber for those corners might do the trick. BTW ebay has the diamond cut clears all day long, got mine for $52 shipped.

I think the diamond cut clears would match up way better than the regulars to my 98's headlights. I ordered a set off EBAY as well. They usually go for around $50-$55 before shipping. (around $8)

Good Luck!
