Question about my amber turn signals
I had someone on these boards a while ago make the stock tails into R32 style tails with amber turn signals and fog. I hate the color of the amber turn signals because they are too whiteish/yellow rather than true amber... its really bugging the hell out of me because it looks cheap. My tech said the dude just used a sharpie on the lens and that stock euro lens isnt easy to find in amber. What you guys think I should do? I will take a pic in a little bit if you guys tell me u wanna see em.
Maybe if I can make em look more amber ill stop contemplating the OEM LEDs |

You can try an amber bulb, but most of the one's I've found are too dim.

^ yeah and thats exactly the issue im having. Seems like there isnt a solution unless i could find a better way to color those lenses. Any ideas? Sorry for my non-creative personality lol.

I just threw the brightest plain bulb I found and decided that the color was close enough. There's no other way around it unless you get an amber led bulb.
