if your going to have chrome rims i would say clear corners would look the best with that...and you could always vht them if you decided you wanted more of a black look

I'd personally get the black markers since it makes them dissapear, which is a cleaner look. Honestly, if you could, wouldn't you just get rid of them all together? Show me a car designer who's drawing concept cars and puts in side marker lights for a concept vehicle. It's like windsheild wipers, no need for them on a show car, right?
Black is my vote.

Chrome rims = Clear corners.

black corners. Then VHT the rear markers and possibly put a slight tint of VHT on the taillights.

lol I was saying for people that vht'd their turn signals to post pics because I have never seen them. I agree with clear corners with chrome wheels too.

I still say blacked out or smoked is best. To me, they are a necessary evil, so why not downplay them rather than highlight them.

Either way, post some pics.
