Default Amber corners on a 5G? Whaddya think?

One of my cheapie APC euro corners filled with water and shed a lot of chrome, so I am going to either buy these:

...or, paint the corners I already have black, to resemble this:

Opinions? I'm not sure how the ambers will look. I've only seen it once on a Civic and it looked ok. My car is black, so I figure black works. Plus, I already have semi-gloss black paint and an oven handy. What do y'all think? Hmm, maybe I'll do both so I can switch 'em out...

Amber corners look nice. Looks like the jdm 5th gen civic corner lenses. I did the all black scheme and its ugly and also the light output was shady. <l-- my $0.02

Yeah, I was sketchy on the light output, especially with the ****e bulbs I currently have. Do you know where I could see a pic of these Amber corners on the car?

personally, i think both are really tacky. don't get the black ones at all but if you want, go for the amber ones. i just don't like the 'euro' look

Amber corners really arent that bad. very old school JDM like. If you want to be different, I'd go with the ambers..if you want to look like every other accord out there, stock or fixed up, get clears. Personally, I would get the ambers.
