I think they look clean on a silver car. On any other color they will stand out alot more.

It def makes it look clean. The stock orange really detracts from the car's appearance IMO... def made my car look 100x better up front (don't mind the pics in the sig, they were pre-signal-change )

Clears

Orange

And to the guy that said something about corvette owners, just because they own corvettes doesnt mean they have a good sense of style.
