Default Clear corners swapped for VHT'd corners.

Don't know what I was smoking when I thought the clears would look good, especially w/ my VHT'd tails and 3rd light. But today, I used my last bit of VHT, literally - on 4th light on 3rd coat can was empty, and hit up my stock corners, and it looks 10x better IMHO.

Pics are crappy, only good angle I could get was directly into the sunlight but you can still see the difference.

Please no bashing me for the clears, as I have repented for my mistake and seen the LIGHT, or lack there of.

^ I would highly recommend it for TA owners. Especially on YOUR car, thing is beautiful man. The clears just looked a little too "ricey" on my car. Others have made it look good, but it just didn't fit on mine.

^ yea i figured that might come up, i tried to take a good before/after set of pics w/ same angles. Only way to determine the difference is, you can see my daughter's head just above my spoiler in the first pic lol. Clear's are in the F/S forum BTW if anybody wants 'em.

Looks much better! I did the same thing to my Formula. I think that the clear corners look great on light-colored cars (especially silver), but they just don't look right on black or NBM.

That looks good on black cars because it blends in nicely.

I would like to have the clears for my silver car...I think I am going to spend a little time and money on it to get it presetable now that the SOM car is about where it needs to be. The VHTed lights look 1000xs batter on your black car though...thats for sure!
