95-99 NISSAN MAXIMA 4PC JDM AMBER BUMPER LIGHTS (first impressions)

Well, they finally came. Here are a few pics.

Everything in the package. Turn signals, parking lamps, extra bulbs for all 4 pieces, extra screws, and even extra grommet thingys.

Here's a picture.

Mine had fallen out long time ago. Its great that the manufactuer included these.

Amber lenses, diamond cut pattern.

Fitment is great. Illumination is great. I'll take pics tomorrow in the daylight.

They look fine, but whats that black crap on the housing?

I like how they are DOT approved with NO reflector. Total BS, not that it really matters.

Or, you could Sutter your clears and have reflectors as well.. That is to paint your clears a nice orange tint while retaining the utmost clarity.

Apparently though, you guys like to spend money..

Well, my pockets aren't bleeding...it was only $27 bucks. I didn't have to purchase paint or primer or wait for the paint to dry. Plus I got the grommet I needed so badly that I couldn't find in any auto parts store.

New lamps > repainting old ones

They are installed, however, the pictures of them on the car came out too dark for me to post. I changed the subject for clarity.

Clears with silver coated turn bulbs/marker LED's are the only way to go on Arctic White Pearl! Goes well with the paint color, no fugly orange, and no "fried egg" look of lesser modifiers who have amber bulbs showing thrhough the clear lens.

The clear orange do however look better than our stock cloudy ones but still way < diamond cut clears IMO.
