that looks awesome!
:headbang:
I actually like those black emblems on your car, it matches your stripes and sets the car off perfectly :2tu:

I love my clear corners too

Howz about some closeups of the sweet bits you did?

Are those the ebay clear lenses going for $80?
Yeah, this is the prototype set that BigMike had made after he bought the last ebay set. I think they look great.

Looks Great I really like the clear. The emblems really do the car justice with the black strips.

Did you replace the rear bumper emblems with black as well, so they all match?
The rear emblems were already shaved when I bought the car. I like it without anything on there.

My next mod will be to red out the rear turn signals.:2tu:

Can you take a close up pic of your clear corners? They look more white than clear in your pics.

They are clear.

1. They are reflective.
2. The inside of the bulb housing is a light grey, which gives it a light background.

Red Snake, are your stripes painted or stuck on and are they flat black?
do you have a straight front on shot as well as a back shot?

The stripes are vinyl and they are flat black. They were installed by Bernie at BJ Motors and they are absolutely perfect. I get more compliments on the stripes than anything else about the car.

It's raining now so I can't get any outside shots :nono: but here's a couple straight on and from the rear while it sits in the garage.

Dave, I did see an auction for these for $80 bucks, but I think they can be had for less, I know I've seen them before for like $20.

I think even maybe another car application will fit the viper the same.

The old ones were discontinued. Your only options (that I've been able to find) and the ones I have for $80 or some of the old ones that are used and for sale by owner. :dunno:

Thank you stripes look great, could'nt really tell before if they had a slight sheen to em or not.
Personally, i'm not really a big fan of other colored marker lights/ blacken out the rears and such but to each his own if it makes you happy than why not.
Car looks fantastic :2tu:
