I'll take the thick one on the right!
I hope those that bought a set share their installation results in this thread. The hard part of this job is getting the edges right- the clear plastic tends to show any excess glue, so any tips on getting a clean seam would be appreciated.

I would say the only drawback is that you can see through the sidemarker to the gray bulb socket holding the bulb in. You might try spraying that silver/chrome if it bothers you, but I doubt anyone but you will notice it. Also, it's impossible to find a chrome spray that actually sprays chrome-like luster that matches the headlight. I was thinking the only thing you could do is "wallpaper" the sidemarker with aluminum foil, but then again aluminum oxidizes over time. Any other ideas? I know there is a process for painting plastic to look chrome, it's done to OEM clear sidemarkers.

When I get mine (Dont worry lex400sc, you'll get your paypal very soon 
), I will do a pictorial on how to install these, hopefully that will help. I also plan on painting the "bulb socket thing" black....or maybe a thin coat of chrome on top of the black. I still gotta think about that.
