Ok, enjoy that awesome C2S you have. You got a great deal on it from the post I saw. Wish I saw it for sale.

Sorry, I missed that post....oh wait, you must be referring to mine.

Please explain to me how I SPECIFICALLY signed up and joined this forum over 10 years ago to TRASH this business in Sept of 2014? I guess all of my threads on changing clutches, brake jobs, or building motors, or all of the others were just ruses on my way to trashing Joel's business?

It seems to me I made some constructive criticism. As someone who flies ~150,000 miles a year, and spends way to much time traveling, my desire to order online when it is convenient for me, is a real and necessary one. And, I'm sure I'm not the only one with this desire. I never trashed anyone's business.

I really get tired of silly statements by drama queens. But hey, way to rack up post count.

I strongly suggest NOT using a hacksaw on your euro length corners. You will never achieve a super clean curved cut line, and sealing them fully will be sketchy too. Above all, it looks like total *** up-close. 200 bucks sounds like a great deal for a proper set!



(I'm more of an amber fan too! When I do my bumperette delete I will be rocking euro ambers. )

Are your "SHORT" lenses made to that length or are they cut down OEM European lenses like many of the other vendor offerings?

^ they are cut down. I am not aware of any manufacturer that produces true short clears for NA bumpers. I have a set from the OP and they are done professionally and look great.

Sorry no pics possible until next Friday when I get home.

Lightbulb Package arrived!

Well is looks like Coreseller beat me to the punch with some great pics on the package and install. GT3 shipped it last Monday right on time, but it sat at UPS one mile from my house all weekend and didn't show up until today.

Five minutes is really about all it takes - unless you run into a bulb issue like I did. The one prong yellow bulbs they supplied don't work with my two prong bulb-holders. Took me an extra three minutes putting bulbs in and out before i figured out i was one prong short. I was going to get amber bulbs wrapped in cellophane in any event - but now I'm thinking I may just stay with the clear turn signals if it's legal here in MA (not much is - but aside from motorcycles I think I may be in the "clear" here).

I've included some pictures to show just how the lens covers slide out. You may need to coax the lens a little to get it sliding forward, but it slides in and out quite easily.

These were definitely cut down and glued (some glue shows on one), but the fit and finish is pretty good and certainly looks better than the OEM yellow on my arctic silver C2S. I would definitely recommend these.

Great pictures your 993 looks very nice with the clear lenses. We will have a dozen sets ready by next week and the price will be the same and shipping is still free.

Installed my set today. These are very nicely put together lenses. you cannot tell they are cut down euro lenses. I could have driven down to South County to pick these up but with free shipping why bother. A nice set of the correct two prong amber bulbs were included as well. Thanks GT3 Tek.

Has anyone tried to cut the bumprette instead of the lens. Have the euro lens go into the bumprette. Might be a cleaner look. Once the clear signal is tucked behind the bumprette. Then who cares what the cut and seal on the lens looks like . It would take a steady hand with a dremel on the bumprette. Just a thought.

The clear "short" turn signals is a good interim step until you complete a full bumperettte delete and install the euro clears. Here's a picture of my C4 with the bumperette delete and euro clears. Turbo "S" scoops soon to come.

Yeah Ed, the website kinda sucks...I can't even get photos of their RS tail via email with the sales dept...Go figure!

Almost seems like they don't want to sell stuff; or the sales staff has a problem thinking outside of the box.

If I was in sales and didn't have photos readily available; I'd bring in a digital camera, or use my cellphone. At some point I'd do what I need to do to get my prospective customer what they need.

GT3 Tek seems to be on a break... I'll just purchase from one of their competitors.
