    Euro Trim Kit

    How many of you guys have a euro trim kit installed on your car?


    It's meant to delete the sidemarkers on your front and rear bumpers.
    Are you guys running alternative sidemarkers, like the european e30's have on their front fender?

    What do the laws/cops say about not having sidemarkers or reflectors?

    Thanks alot.

    Parking lights don't blink on the US cars anyways, just the front turn indicators.

    Cops don't know they were there in the first place.

    The euro trim looks great though, give it a shot!

      Right, but they do stay on while you're driving...

          Shit, my front turn indicators don't come on with the regular driving lights anymore. But my "smilie" lights do. My front turn indicators only do one thing, indicate my turn.

            Haha, did you wire them that way?
            or did it just "happen"?

              I don't have side markers, never had a problem. Then again, I live in alabama, where you can build a rail buggy and legally drive it on the street and register it. I also have yellow headlights that I've never had any problems with.
              For front marker lights I have city lights in my high beams (with shine yellow) instead of the turn indicator light.

                  Word to this.

                  and i've never been bothered about not having reflectors and/or sidemarkers.

                    That's what I want to do with my sidemarkers, is make them blink with the turn signals. Euro trim is rad, but in order for me to use it front and rear, I'd have to chop and section another set of rear bumper trim, since I'm sporting a plastic bumper conversion.

                      Go for it! I have euro trim and I get no hassle whatsoever.

                        With your modify skills in that department, I'd bet you could just fill a ergular US set when making them for shortened bumpers.

                          You might aswell just fill in the sidmarkers on the US trim since you have to cut, put them back together and repaint.

                              Is that for just the front? I see it says rear center section?
