Hey all, planning on getting side markers installed on my black 2000 GTZ. Was looking for some suggestions on which ones would look the best? Do you guys have any advice. Links and pics would be helpful. I'm thinking a white color would be best and low profile as flat as possible.

Also, when looking at side markers does it matter if they do not say universal. Do BMW Z3 markers work or ones that say honda specific still work fine?

Any advantages to getting LED instead of bulbs side markers?

Thanks for any advice in advance....

Cool...i was leaning towards #1 or #6. Pinoy, how does #6 look on the 3 series? Any chance you can get a pic of it? As well nopi sells like several versions of this hella side marker...any clue what the difference b/w all of them are? And does the black plastic part behind the marker show actually show still after it is installed or is it hidden? Can't tell by the pic how they would actually look installed. Thanks!

Do you guys think #1 might be too long perhaps when installed or do you think it would look cool? I'm leaning towards either #1 or maybe #6 for originality sakes. #2 is the M3 style and it looks kinda slick too. Can't really tell how flat these markers all are tho.

Any more thoughts guys?
