Looks good,
At least your black rims have a silver rim to break things up a little.
I hate solid black rims, looks like a hubcaps fell off or somthing.
And i like the way the rims match the front and back of your car-black grill & rear panel.

Oh well, I guess I won't be getting any thumbs up from you! If your car was lowered, and your y-pipe scraped everything you drove over, I highly doubt you'd lower it either!

I think the rear clear markers stand out more than the stock red ones would....since your car IS red, but other than that...its bad ***. Very clean and simple.

So what are you saying? That you would have left the red ones in? I didn't like the amber clear corners, so with clear all the way around, I think it fits.

I really like how the black on the wheels, your rear panel and the B-pillar all come together, I like...

I just look at it different I guess. The front and rear markers are such different sizes/shapes, I think of the front markers and headlights together, and the rears with the taillights. Did that make sense? clear with clear (front) and red w/ red (rear).

Looks good but I would have kept the rear side markers red since the car is red instead of making them clear (kinda stands out). Took a look at your gauages to, a little to active for my tastes. Other than that everything's perfect .
