yay or neh?

My Z has 16,500 org miles right now. You think i should keep my stock side markers or go with the clears? I think clears look 10x better. But the stockers keep it more original look. Ive already done some stupid mods to it

I don't consider those mods stupid at all, what you have now is a very clean and low-mile thirdgen with a punch

dude, those mods have all been tasteful. the clears will only help compliment the color and the rims. props to you for modding the car, you should make it into whatever you like. just as long as you take care of it, you shouldnt feel bad or anything.

I'll be the oddball and say keep the OEM side markers. I've never been a fan of clear side markers. Either way though, your car is sweet.

I say get the clears. I also wouldnt worry about keeping it stock because it has such low miles. Everything you done so far is tasteful. Not to mention, you only live once. Enjoy the car, drive it, work on it and learn. Don't just let it sit in the garage because it has low miles.

Personally, I'd go with the clears. I think they would look very nice on your car.

On another note, if I had your car I'd put miles on it like crazy

The clears are easy to take off if it ever needs to be "original", but regardless, I'm not a fan of clears. They do sometimes look good, but IMHO it looks like an AutoZone mod. I know, I know LOTS of sweet cars here have 'em, and so do several friends of mine, I just have never liked 'em.

That's what I'm sayin'. If it wasn't for the price of gas, I'd be driving right now!
