Your headlights are already smoked, so why not smoke them. Balance everything out

Just remember, contrary to poular belief people do use turn signals and expect you to use yours too. Smoking them will surely dim them somewhat and thats not a good idea. As a matter of courtesy I would leave them at stock brightness.

are we talking about the sidemarkers? if so, either leave them orange or if you're big into the whole "jdm" thing. get the amber sidemarkers. cuz smoking them will kinda dim them from other driver's from seeing it.

im confused...some of you guys are saying side-markers, some are saying parking lights, and some say turn signals.
hopefully your talking about the ones on the front bumper, if so...you should get clear ones and then smoke them out. I've never seen that done before in person - so if you decide to go this way you'd be a cool mofo in my book
(along with me)
oh yah, first smoke a J and them smoke your side-markers

I dont see the big deal about him not smoking them because of it dimming. Heck, a lot of cars dont even have those side markers.

again you answered my point the amber ones are jdm like i said.
the clear ones are from procar parts and are not imported form japan hence not jdm.
the clear onees are only clear supra sidemarkers.
