Custom side markers
Started off with some Diode Dynamics side markers, and went crazy with some color matched paint. The pictures below detail the process. Won't go on the car for a few days. Once they've cured for about 48 hrs, I'm going to sand, polish, and seal them.
So, what do you think guys? Like em? Hate em?

Have to see then on the car to see how well you matched the paint
You do know that Oracle sells color matched side markers already right? I am sure you saved a lot of money doing them your way though |

Looks good! The true test will be putting them on, how do they look next to the car, are you happy?

WOO! PERFECT MATCH! Wet sanded, polished, and sealed. Bolting them up tonight! And to answer the question above, I had oracle markers on my last car, and after getting pulled over multiple times because their amber looked too red, I decided they weren't worth the hassle. Saving over $300 was a nice bonus, and I got the paint to match perfectly. I also like that they still have a color correct reflective stripe when they are off, and DOT stamps for the ticket happy highway patrol.
