Hey everyone, I am looking for some clear side markers. Does anyone know where to get them cheaper than teh D-Speed ones tehy sell at corksport for $60?

 

for S4 you dont buy them you make them

 

FYI s4 and s5 SIDEMARKERS are the same. How do you make them so they dont look ghetto?

 

like this

 

you make those? how did you do it? are they reflective like other clear sidemarkers?

 

When I have my 87 I boiled mine in hot water and then peeled the orange off..

yeah i made those and the ones for the front parking lights as well . basically i went to home depot and bought this acrylic/plastic lens sheets and trace and cut using a dremel, and grinding wheel. it takes a few tries but ive done harder ones of these. if yo uever see a newer mercury cougar 01 and up . the orange reflectors on those are very hard and i made a set of them . i think i have a few pics here http://cougardb.com/car.php?id=Knibbs. if you can see how the headlights are i molded those to fit .. took some time but they came out pretty nice . they are pretty reflective. although to bring out the clearity in them maybe throw some hyper white bulbs and reflective tape behind it . ill be doing that in the summer time when i get a chance. oh yeah .. btw i forgot . but some of the parking lights are molded to their backing ,, some arent. you can to use a heat gun and razor blade and small flat headed screw drivers to pry them apart. then there is a rubber spacer in there.. you have to slightly sand them down. it took a few trips from the car to the grinder to get this to work . im working on easier methoods. but over they chance the look of the car nicely

 

I think I gotta try this tomarrow..hehe...should be fun. Anyone else done it like this???

 

lemme know how it turns out...

 

That is a bunch of B.S. I tried every year car I have, 87 NA, 87 TII, 88 TII, 91 Vert, 90 Vert. I melted 3 markers. ALL OF THEM ARE MOLDED OF PLASTIC IN THAT COLOR. The pigment is in the plastic. If there was a "an orange to peel off", then I would have seen it when I cut a marker down the middle. All of it is orange plastic. I also tried the rear markers, the red ones, same thing. The bigger front markers, in the bumber, same thing. I'd pay for the others.

 

here are the pics of the ones i made. i smoked the front ones on the outside lightly with white paint so you cant see the black behind them.

 

Too much of a hastle for me..I'm going to keep mine orange

lol.....oops.

 

Anybody like the look of these................I might be able to make some more if there's interest. They're re-worked lenses from a different 'not-to-be-named' model car

 

they look like there is no lense on them

 

Those are pretty trippy man. If you were to make some more how much would you think of charging?

 

those look like there off of a older honda.

but just a guess

 

i want some ^

 

DingDingDing!! We have a winner!!
Yeah, they're reworked mid-80's Accord lenses.
