Question Clear lenses:

I know there are some threads on this subject here already but...
I have the clear lenses all around and am only concerned about the fast fade-out of the tint on the red brake bulbs. They all start off fine but end up whitish in places after only a month or so. I've gotten several sets of bulbs and am getting tired! Anyone know where or how to remedy this short of going back to stock (probably the best idea!)

I paint mine about every month and a half. Use maroon paint, not red. Maroon makes the lights look the correct color when lit. Also, just use a light coat or you won't have any lights. I've been through the same thing you have, and this is what works best, as well as looks best.

Hey Guys,
I have a question concerning the clear corner lenses. Are y'all using amber bulbs? If so, where did you buy them? I am going to order the clear corner lenses off of here, but it doesn't say whether or not they come with the amber bulbs . . . any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Your stock bulbs are amber. No need to replace if they still work.

Anyone order the clear corner lenses from this site. If so how long did it take to receive them. I was informed they would be here 7 days after I made the order. NOw ten days later No lenses. I realise they say three weeks but when I'm mailed and told 7 days..well you know. Any problems with the lenses beside the legality thing?

Jeff C. I sent you an email regarding more information to ship your order the day after you ordered the lenses. I have not heard back from you since. Please email me directly so I can get them out to you. The lenses are in stock and always ship priority mail to arrive within 3 days no matter where in the US you live! I will still be waiting!
