On ProCarParts.com, they feature two different bumper lights; one "Diamond Cut Euro" and the other just "Bumper Lights". There's a $17 dollar difference. Is the Diamond Cut that much better? Anyone know what the real differences are?

Well... do you want your car to look good? Or really really good?

The "US" clear corners look like stock, except they're clear.

The "Euro" are like see-through. Looks like glass, or so I'm told. I haven't seem them in person and I don't think I know of anyone that has seem them in person.

If you're into car shows and showing your car off as much as possible, I guess the extra $17 would be well spent on the corners, but if you just drive and want a lil style, just get the "US" clear corners.

just get the regular ones. clear lenses are just clear lenses. the euros just have a bigger diamond pattern thats all. looks uglier to me.

Pay the extra $17 and get the Euro ones. I upgraded from the U.S. ones and they look really nice.

my opinion is

if you have a 97-99 I would get the euro clears for the extra money but if you have a 95-96 I think that the less expensive ones would match better just my .02 cents

As of right now there are four sets on ebay. They usually go for around $50-$55 there. You can go that route, or go directly to their site and buy them for $69.

Pictures of them can be seen on ebay or at their site.

Here's one of the ebay auctions...

Or you can go to their site

Good Luck!

I won an Ebay auction for some clears from Matrix Racing (seller name "bonbonshaker") and they are Soooo slooow! They had my payment for a week (it was a Money Order) before they shipped. Is Procarparts better about shipping quickly?
