Does anyone make clear rear side markers for our car?
I've looked but can't find any. I don't like the stock red ones and tinting them doesn't go with my car IMO

 

no clear ones that i know of

 

I got some for my Saturn SL2 but no one makes them for the Cobalt?

 

We have replacements but there not "stock" looking.

EDIT: read to fast, we have fronts but not rears..

 

Yea I'm looking for rears, the Red sticks out too much

 

Paint them silver?

 

That's an option...

 

I finally got back to doing this, got a pair of side markers from a part-out and a can of GM touch up rattle can and just painted them silver

Paint


Before




After one coat, and red LED you can still see the red shine threw when lit, needs a clear coat tho to make them shinny

 

huh, I dont know how to feel about that lol^^^^^

 

haha looks dumb shoulda kept them red if you buy plexiglass you can make your own i made some of my own on my cavalier and painted the back white

 

Meh -- If you plan on Smoking the tails out, Just match it with the tails. I was thinking about this as well but I would have to get a really really really faint white with High Gloss that won't turn yellow when I clear coat it.

I would have probably used the touch up marker on the hardware holding the lens on and perhaps did 2 more coats of color (You can't even see it during the daytime as far as illumination)

 

That's so dumb. You might as well just remove the bulb while your at it. Not like you can see through the paint.

 

what about molding some plexiglass then putting a red led strip behind it.. it would take some serious work but look awesome if done right

 

Just leave em alone end thread /

i guess i tend to agree with you there after seeing where this thread is going

 

thats easy for you to say cali, your **** comes stock colour matched. I had to nightshade the **** out of my side markers to match black, they look out of place

 

They look great in person! never thought of pulling the bulb out mike lol.

 

i could pull the bulbs, just dont know if id get any **** from the cops lol
but i did notice when i was doing the one of the bulbs was burn out so i might just pull the bulbs and see

 

NiteShade FTW. No clears currently available.

 

Cops don't care about sidemarker bulbs lol

 

i could always just say they must have burn out and i didn't realize it LOL there never going to check if theirs actually a bulb

 

I want black or dark side markers.

 

I blacked out my side markers, it doesnt make a huge appearence difference...

 

you should just tint your tails, 3rd brake light and rear side markers. theres a silver T/C at my job like that has VHT night shades on them. and it looks nice. if you dont like the red. just smoke them out a bit. black matches with anything. i tinted mine out because red lights on a red car looks a bit stupid to me. im thinking of removing the tint and just using VHT. if you can spray right it will come out lookin nice. i didnt go crazy dark, check out my sig if you want.

 

As stated in the OP

i have nothing else tinted, and im not planing on tinting my tails or third
i just wanted them to blend in
