Hi,

I had InPro smoked side indicators installed for about 2 years. They look quite good at first but I noticed that when the sun shines on the same side of the car every day, the indicator on this side fades and becomes some sort of grey (doesn't really look good).

3 weeks ago I installed S4 clear/white side indicators (original Audi part).

Default Here is a photo from my registry page, I can post a better shot later if need be....

I think the OEM orange side markers draw way too much attention to themselves, espically on a black car. The smoked markers blend in nicely and are the best appearance mod for the money IMO.

Don't forget to buy some orange bulbs since the OEM bulbs are clear.

Default Thanks!

Yea, I'm a bit **** about keeping my car clean. I swear I will never buy another black car, but then again I said that the last black car I owned.

Didn't you do your own timing belt a few months back? It takes big ones to tackle that job at home. I wimped out and paid Gossett to do my belt last spring.

Just drop me an e-mail (rjordan@olemiss.edu)when the Memphis gang gets together and I'll do my best to be there.
