Thanks Kayger....fellow Jerseyman....I'm from Monmouth County originally...I graduated from Long Branch High. Not sure if I'm gonna keep the smoked corners....looks weird to me because the headlights are clear.....might change them to the clears with black trim.

Small world.

I'd give it some time and see how you feel about them. Black-trim clears would look great as well, I think.

Yeah I'll leave them in for awhile and see if they grow on me....or maybe I'll just tint my headlights lol.

Black trim clears would look so clean. Black grill next?

Tails look hot! Not feeling the smoked front corners on a black car though, I'd go for some clears with the black trim.

Glad to see another member from Jersey! I live just a town over from Long Branch!

Came out great Rickey. Up in the air how the smoked corners look with the headlights though....

I'm surprised on how dark the smoked corners are on the facelifted sedans...they are much lighter on the pre-facelifted cars.

I myself bought smoked corners and sidemarkers...put them on and 5 minutes they were up on the internet getting sold.

Yeah I'm not reeally feeling them either, I think I'm gonna get the clear with black trim....I just got her tinted today, I'll probably throw some pics up this week when it isnt raining and/or cloudy out. I'll be in Jersey this summer sometime...I come home about once ever 2-3 months.

No black rims over here dj, I'm looking to do Gunmetal or Matte Grey. Definitely considering a black grill too.

That sounds great.. Do you already have a certain one in mind already?

Nice thread Ricky!

Thanks for the pictures. I've been back and forth on the corners and sidemarkers choices for my touring for sometime. Haven't really seen many good pics of a black car with smoked corners until you posted yours.

I like the smoked sides... But would also probably go with the clear corners. Love the tails. Very nice!
