clear is my vote. I had a white car with black housing w/ clears and it looked awesome...esp with a cf hood.

I think OEM amber turn signals look best on any other color than red.

Ambers for me...IMO, they look the best on white cars cuz they stick out more...just like a CF hood does...same reasoning for why a CF hood wont look as good on a black car...but it depends on wut kinda look u want going for ur ride....the clean JDM look fits well with a white car cuz thats wut u see everywhere....i.e. white car, amber lenses, CF hood, Red seats, gold rims, etc...

clears are played out and ugly. IMHO. Leaving them amber actually sets you apart from the crowd nowadays. I prefer to be different.

JDM outer clear lenses will look the best on yours. The JDM dont have that stupid reflector in it.

Damn.... now I'm really confused... I guess what I can do is drive around with the amber ones for a week and see how they look... I've had the clear ones for about 2 yrs now.... I'm thinking the amber ones would suit the Blk housing headlights better...????

Amber is great if your have amber sidemarkers. I have the amber/orange in the inner, jdm clear lenses for outers, jdm yellow fogs, and amber jdm sidemarkers.

^^ I thought the JDM's sides (not sidemarker) were amber and DID have the reflector in them...they just didnt have a socket for the bulbs cuz thats wut the sidemarkers were for...

Nope JDM sides are smooth and they either come all clear or all orange depending on year of Lude.

^--- exactly and you're right about not having a socket. I say go JDM amber. You already have the headlights already, so why not get the whole JDM front end as well. ;-)

I have clear bumper lenses with amber bulbs and JDM 1 piece headlights with clear corner bulb. It looks killer at night!

With your car being white I would say clear.
