I smoked the stock park lights and a set of clear side markers on my purple 92. I like the results and don't have any problems with day/night visibility with the turn signals or park lights. I think they'd look pretty good against blue also

Re: Clear or smoked side marker lights, and front bumper lights

car looks good, i was leaning more towards the smoked lenses aswell, then id have more choices to go with wheels when i get to that point. a set of darker wheels would compliemnt them nicely i think. i wish i could find someone whose got a blue camaro like mine, with them already on, just to see what they would look like.

Smoked always looks good on darker colored cars.

Re: Clear or smoked side marker lights, and front bumper lights

My vote is on smoked. I had the clear, it was a bit to much. So I went with smoked, I think it look's much better.

I have the clear front bumper lights...and personally I like them. I have the same color car that you have and I think it looks decent.
