I think they look good on darker cars, but I think they especially go well with a silver car (yes, I'm biased). The silvery color of the lights blends with the silver paint well. I decided to get them after I saw them displayed on a silver Vantage on the AM site.

I HOPE they look good on silver, as the car that I have my eye on is a '10 V8V Tungsten Silver (with red).

Lol my Dad told me the same, he said that nobody puts that much effort in having a nice garage. I agree it's kind of funny...

How about some paint colored side markers? I'd love to get rid of the reflectors. Anyone make them?

I have the clear tail-lamps on an 07, Vantage Roadster, Tungsten Silver; they look awesome!

I was going home from work as dusk was changing to dark and as luck would have it I got behind a black DBS. Of course I was in the BMW so I didn't want to get next to him and do the thumbs up thing so I just followed. It dawned on me how cool those clear tail lights look with the lights on and off. I don't think that you can go wrong with any color. The only time I may prefer the red tails is in a roadster with red interior. By the way, they definitely look good on silver cars.

I searched for clear side markers a while back but came up empty. Clear looked good on a silver M Roadster I used to have and would go well with the clear tail lights. That said, the colored side markers don't clash with the clear tail lights IMO.

I am glad that someone else thought that too , what a beautiful setting, I can literally stay in the garage all day long, I hope I would get something similar someday, I live in a city, it's like living in NYC, so when I get a parking spot for rent, I HOLD ON to it as strong as possible lool
