25-35 bucks? is that it? honestly, thats cheap as dirt... and a DIY, wont look nearly as good as a professionally done one... and it'll probably run u the same price for all materials needed.

I'd imagine that you'd simply need to break off all of the amber plastic(or melt the glue by putting it in the oven and prying it off), and then you'd simply need to take a sheet of office lighting material, and cut it to the right shape and sand down the corners so that they look nice. Once you do that, you could probably just glue the plastic piece of office lighting material onto the sidemarker.

Don't you think spending the $40-50 would be so much more worth it, quality and looks wise?
90-94 Mitsu and Eagle Talons , their clear corners are a sheet of the plastic with amber stuck in there..my friend and I put his in the oven, took it out, pryed off the glue and pulled out the amber part of plastic. You can't do that with ours though, at least not with 95s? ( ) because the plastic part is just amber..there is no clear part |
