Default Clear or Yellow on Arctic w/o bumperettes??

What do you think? I'm sort of leaning toward yellow because I want to keep the front as original as possible but I know the clears were standard for some models. In this pic that I have the fog lights look much more clear than the ones I currently have. Is there a difference between the ROW fogs and the US ones?

Also, I know that the clears can be ordered from Gert, but what about the ROW yellow indicators? Does anybody have a good source for these?

I am getting ready to have the front bumper re-sprayed and was considering the bumperette removal in the process but really want to keep the original look as much as possible. If anybody has any other pics of silver 993's with either the clear or yellow turn signal indicators w/o bumperettes I'd love to see them.

I like the yellow myself. Something I dont like about the clear lens' is that they are generally really clear, and dont match the fog lights that well, especially when there isnt a bumperette to separate them..

the solution to that problem is the turbo s ducts (which really give the car a nice look, imo) instead of the cheesy fog lights :-)

Hey Mathew,

How did the Turbo S ducts install go? Was it easy? How do they look? Do you have or are you getting the clears now?

I like the Turbo S ducts on the Turbo S but not as much with my bumper (just my personal taste).

Does anybody know why some non-US cars had yellow and others had clear?

4WD drive models (Turbo, 4S) had clear while 2WD had amber.

The answer is "clear" as a bell - CLEAR rules!
