pic of front turn signals

anybody got a good closeup picture of the front turn signals when they are new or in really good condition? i've washed my, baked it in the oven, took it apart, clean it with soap, but it's still very dull looking. wondering what they look like new, if it's worth buying some new ones.

I dont understand why more people do what I doo, and rip open the light housings and UNSCREW yes unscrew the lense. the all white looks so much better then the orange in the middle. Especially on black cars. Its not to have "hyper gay turn singals" its to have the white on the black and such. or u could gay yourself up and get the 100 dollars "clear turn singnals"

i'm talking about the 93-95 turn signals..yea, i baked it in the oven, took out the orange thing, looks much better, but i want the white lenses to look clearer, my is dull...wondering if it's just dull naturally or is it because my is old and i should get new ones.

try this-polish them with aluminum polish then follow with clear plastic polish and see if that helps.

deamon- well, if you take out both turn singnal housings, and you get a hair dryer and start to heat them up a bit, the glue becomes soft, and u can pull the cover open, and unlike most cars, the orange lense can be unscrewed, and then u can usually use the old glue, if not some silicone based stuff, and put the housing back together. Then instead of the crappy orange rectangle in the middle of the turn singnal housing, u get nice white clear ones. like this+



YES I DID TURN THE EMBLEM THE RIGHT WAY< THE BODY SHOP PUT IT ON UPSIDE DOWN WHEN MY BUMPER WAS REPLACED

screw turn signals, you have your arm. I took my front turn signals/parking lights out. The stock bumper honestly looks better without them. I get 1hp from the extra air
