Had these sitting for years, thought they were someones own attempt at tinting

but they are genuine aftermarket smoked ones

was going to eBay them last night, tried them on car, now not sure what i think?

So whats your thoughts?

Standard




Smoked

They were the best aftermarket smoked ones out there,i had a set on mine 20 years back when they came out ,i like them both, chop and change them as you feel like it,smoked ones work with the alloys and small plate

I thought they would look horrible, but really changed my mind i think!

There is a make on the lenses "ARIC" or something similar to that anyway,

They were just lying in a pile of rubbish and leftovers from the car they came off ready for bin, so quite happy i saved them

Smoked for me mate, always look nice on a black car but as twins said you can alwSys chop and change them whenever takes your fancy.

I've got exactly the same smoked ones 'ARIC' as you say. I'm going to sell mine as I'm going back to standard but they look better on your car

Im sure you'll have no problem selling them, seem to be quite sought after!

Yea i was searching for a few pics of cars with them fitted, red or black cars seem to suit them best imo!

davidfordrs

Yeah I have them on my red one too I think they look better on red or black as well.

If you are running clears up front I would go for smoked.

Although I like the original look, I love the smoked rears, especially on a grey car!

I had a mint set and managed to drop one and break the corner, doh!

Scott_Rst

Thats what was putting me off, i have ambers, don't really like clears tbh

mk3ste

Smoked all the way they make a huge difference to the back end

Scott_Rst

lol gutted mate, i had a mint set of headlight protector/cover things, took them off car, set them down, picked about then stepped back and crushed one

no way I'm going to pay stupid money for a set now! and know body has just one for sale lol

ahh in that case I'd run the ambers. I think miss match front and rear looks odd.

These were clears and i dusted them over with some smoke spray

Scott_Rst

Yea i agree mate it does look a bit odd

haha I'm on it already!

Be awesome if you did!

Fully clear (No orange filter either!) front and side repeaters, smoked rears. I have a set of the smoked rears the same as yours in the garage ready for my next tin top.

I'm not a fan of the amber lenses at all.
