I grew up during the clear corner, altezza, ricer, grapefruit shooter (whatever you want to call it) era and I am glad it’s mostly over.

With that being said, I will gladly send someone my 991 clear markers for the price of shipping.

Definitely! Reminds of people removing painted door handles to put black ones one. When black were standard, people would paint them. Ironic!

Default Replace the red rear reflectors
with painted to match bumperplugs.com and you will have totally cleaned up the look of the car in addition to the clears!

No. I prefer the original amber markers.

I think it looks good on a black car. Better contrast than any color.

Exactly. The orange adds a pop of color to the front end.

After installing the Numeric shifter and the Carplay retrofit this weekend, I ordered the clear markers from Sun Coast since I needed something else from there anyway. I have to say if you have a manual, this shifter is awesome.

Do you stick to Sun Coast or are there other options you recommend? I'm thinking of a few other things so I am also trying to gauge where to look when buying any parts for the car.

Thanks in advance!
Tom
