If so, can you show me the pics of them on your car. Before and after would be ideal, but I'll take whatever you've got.

Thanks!!

I'd like to see this as well. I'm also looking for a source. The ones that I like look like they're smoked. Not almost black, but a charcoal gray color. Anyone know where I can see a pair/purchase?

Very cool slide show TA! Car looks really great! Thanks for sharing those pics! It does seem to make the car look more refined.

I never thought I would entertain making any adjustments to my car, but this one refinement seems worth it!

I installed clears months ago, (my avatar is seriously outdated) and such a simple upgrade makes a world of difference in appearance. The entire instaill process takes 5 minutes or less per side and does not require any special knowledge or tool... Purchased mine from Eric at bumperplugs and would absolutely recommend purchasing the clears from him http://www.bumperplugs.com/
