Default Nbm Camaro with chrome rims need help picking

I have a 2000 Camaro with chrome rims nbm. What side markers and turn signals should I do? alot of people say clear because of the chrome rims but black looks good also. something so simple is hard to choose lol. I was gunna do the whistler mod then black turn signals and clear side markers for the rims. What do u guys think

Buy both, try both, leave on what you like best! The winning method.

Personally I tend to like clear corners on nbm cars, but don't care for clear side markers on them. I actually prefer stock side markers on nbm.. As I do with most colors, only exceptions would be black (black markers), and white and silver cars (clear markers)

I have a 00 NBM SS with chrome zr1's whistled headlights and clear signals, I think it looks great. I was having the same delima so I went to the NBM appearance thread in the stickies and looked and compared to help make my decision.

For a NBM color I would go all clear, it will look very nice IMO.

I left the rear side markers red, it kinda ties in with the red taillights I thought two white rectangles in the rear looked out of place, just my opinion though.

I also used the frosted clear signals so they look more stock then the crystal clear ones. Here's an example of them. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=25882945340

NBM + black accents is the way to go, regardless of wheel color. I went with Whistler'd headlights and black corners on my car, keeping the red rear markers though, I think black markers would look cheap. IMHO, the black corners really make the car. I did the Whistler before I did the corners, and it changed the car and made it look aggressive, but the black corners with the Whistler just make it look down right sinister.....
