997.2 Carrera S - Stage 1 Mods and a ?

Hey Guys,

So I picked up my car a week ago, and today I started Step 1 of my modification process: tint, lowering the car (H&R Springs), painting the exhaust tips, and "Carrera S" logo matte black...

Subtle changes, but for me personally it'll make a huge difference...

Questions: Does anyone know where I can get smoked front turn signals for my car?
Or...should I just get the Euro clears and smoke them myself?

Yes I do...I have them on my car, along with smoked rear tail lights. I'm happy to trade yours for mine...I'd like to go back to stock. PM me.

Apparently I am not allowed to PM because I don't have the minimum number of posts to enable me to do so...

Did they originally come clear and you smoked them or did you purchase them smoked? Where did you get them from?

Do you have a close up picture of them? I am assuming they are in good condition?

Ah, np. Welcome to the forum.

Can't remember where I got them (clear) - Suncoast maybe. Then had then tinted. I see that yours are yellow -- sorry, was looking for clear. If you're interested in tinted rear tail lights please check out the pics...

I could sell you the side markers, but only with the tail light swap.

NP.

Just called up my dealer, and they have clear ones in stock - will pick them up tomorrow - see how those look first, if I still feel somethings missing I will smoke them myself.

Thanks!

That works. Check out the pics though -- you may really like the smoked rear tail lights.
