Question Front reflectors!

How do you change these amber reflectors? What color would look good in silverstone? Smoke or Clears? Please advise!

I painted my flat black giving it a more aggresive look. BTW you posted on the wrong thread.

Another question, how are you sponsored by DC Sports?

Here's a link, works great, no need to remove anything, just bend back the plactic. The "Z' shaped tool is must though.

Contrasting colors seem to look better IMO, White on BY, DB &SB, Smoked on PPW, CS&SS

I put the clears on my super black this weekend. I think they look sweet, but I think either would work on a SS. The drivers side was easy to do, just remove the pins int the wheel well, the bolts underneath the bumper and the pins you see when you pop the hood. This should give you enough play to get in there without removing the entire bumper. The passenger side is much more difficult though. You need to remove the pins in the wheel well, pull the plastic wall away, and then remove the 3 bolts that hold the bumper on to the frame. This should give you enough play to get your hands in there and replace the old one. The entire job should take no more than an hour to do. Good luck, and i hope this helps.

It's a PIA if you don't go through the wheel well or if you don't take off the bumper. Trust me, I only went in from underneath... gotta mega scratches doing this, but remarkably finished in less than two hours. Now if I had done it properly (and not been so lazy), it would've taken less time.

My friend works at DC Sports, and he told me they needed a 350Z for the next SEMA show, so I volunteered my car.
