Hey guys, what about having clear corners? Its possible? In some cars its like a tint that you can remove, any chance of doing something on the Genesis?

Mike you should have painted the chrome on the projector white, that way your headlights look like very stigmatized eye balls.

The only problem with the clear corners are the empty space where the light hits the orange reflector. BUT even with the reflector still on you still a black square in that spot. I'm sure something could be setup to fill that space and not look bad at all, like some corner signals that you'd put in fenders or something small?

thank you
there are only 2 types of headlights, HID and non-HID

The HID are the ones with the dark housing.
