clears vs stock

i replaced my turn signals with clear ones awhile back. now i feel like putting the stock ones back in cuz i think it gives the car more class appeal instead of rice. what do you think? what looks better?

Im agreeing with ya WhiteR, it does give the car a touch of class. the clear corners do look nice if your car is a really dark color, As is mine ,a drk forest green, i did the clears but ended up back on the orginal stock ones. it just looked better .

I personally like my car a lot more with the clear bumper lights, rather than the ugly orange ones.

ive been mixed on getting clears for months now, and I probably wont do it, because on all the auctions, everyone wants like $12 for shipping which is ridiculous. They probably are trying to make money off the shipping which annoys me, so I dont buy from them. HA i win

clear corners and bumper lights are definately classier than the yellow ones, hands down.

well bumper lights the clear ones really do look better. but as for the corner lights it can go either way. just the orange bumper light needs to go according to me.

oh on another note i agree with grapefury 12$ shipping is crazy! unless of course its overnight or 1-2 day. I guess. But once i find one that has decent shipping and at a fairly evened price i'll take it.

Thats not them jacking up shipping, its how much it cost... turn signals w/box weighs roughly 2-5lbs the low end on shipping for these is $8, anything above $13 is too much unless its to Canada, AK or HI and also international

We charge $10 as well, we ship with UPS always and USPS Priorty/Express Mail on occassion. We try to always find the lowest price for our customer

i've done ups shipping for quite a while with the company i used to work for, and it all depends on the zone the destination is going to.
most likely those wanting $12 added their own "hidden handling" cost into it. Like a person going to get it, sealing the box and slapping a ups sticker on it or something.

some of the more considerate auctioners have a ups shipping calculator right in their page, u just enter in your zip. The buyers will know they're not getting scammed on shipping. and i've never had to pay $12 for ups or for shipping with roughly the same weight and size as the clear corners.
