Default Opinions 2wd Saffs, Std lights or Clear/smoked ???

What peoples opinions on the indicators and rear lights on 2wd Saffs ? Do you prefer the yellow indicators and red/white/yellow back lights?

or

Does it make a difference depending what colour the car is ?

Agree. I do prefer ambers front and rear on white, but most others i`d go with the smokes. Its all up to the individual...

Think i agree, yellow indicators at front and the smoked rears.

The clear indicators just seem to washout any character from the front end of the car

I prefer 2 wheel drive lights but I've bought 4 sets of rears so far and still not got a set I've got ambers on the front but that looks odd with the smoked rears
