diesel007 · 04-09-2006, 08:24 PM

Longtran made these for me a while back, I finally got around to installing them. :rocks:

beauderek · 04-09-2006, 08:33 PM

Those look good. Any more pictures? How do you like them?

canucklion · 04-09-2006, 08:34 PM

Long should open his own shop.

magmd · 04-09-2006, 09:10 PM

Looks good man!

Long is going to make me buy clears for my car also....cuz the clears are so freaking sweet!!!!!!!

Edit: ok....doing my taxes tonight!

wyrm11 · 04-09-2006, 09:23 PM

Those look fantastic. Do clear headlights have to be personally made? Can't just go and buy them somewhere?

beauderek · 04-09-2006, 09:27 PM

Yep. They look really good. Much better than that orange reflector.

DEAN325i · 04-09-2006, 09:29 PM

Got Long?

Nice photoshop techniques... I think I see some dodging/burning going on there!

Oh, yah. Cool car too.

Well, long figured out a way to remove the amber reflectors. Search on this site and you will see a DIY with details. Or...you can just try to buy them like I will likely do.

Since you are from Krypton...I assume you have ambers on that planet as well. Only USA cars have the amber reflectors, due to DOT regulations (USA laws!!!). Clears are the "euro-style" lights. They make xenon and halogen versions. They also make adaptive and non-adaptive versions of the xenons. Try ebay, etc...but not so easy to just buy anywhere, since the are "imported."

Good luck!

longtran · 04-09-2006, 10:04 PM

damn that looks good.....big difference. where are your blacklines? ahahah.....

canucklion · 04-09-2006, 10:08 PM

uh.. no, that's not a phtochop on Ryan's car, it's the real deal clears, Long did it in this DIY

I like your new clears Diesel...they look the same color as your car. Are they painted that way or was the amber piece just removed.

So when you remove the amber piece and if they look just like that they will never look like the euro spec ones right?

shragon · 04-09-2006, 10:28 PM

looks really good. i think i actually like the black/dark-color in place of the amber rather than a clear/white piece.

Thanks for the entertaining response. Yes we have the ambers here as well

I definitely prefer the euro style corners...they look MUCH cleaner.
