Default Newbie buying from CTD-Germany

Alohaz from Hawaii. I just got my blaze red crossfire last week and I was planning on doing some small and tasteful mods. The first thing I wanted to do was to get rid of the front amber side markers and replace them with some clear ones. I found them only on CTD-germany website as someone has recommended.

I have never ordered anything from europe before and I am wondering what some of your experiences were. Thanks.

i ordered my clear markers from ctd and received them in about 2 weeks after the processing of my card. i was very happy with their services...but be patient and allow at least 2 weeks for delivery...remember they are coming from germany and your in hawaii. no complaints from me.

Welcome to the club of blaze red Xfires from Texas to Hawaii! I've considered replacing the side markers into clear ones but it doesn't seem to match the color at all. Clear side markers match well with SSB, black and alabaster but not red. Maybe you can invest your money in the illuminated door sills, Spark blue headlights and the Magnaflow muffler. Just my 2 cents.

Hmmm... maybe clear isn't the way to go. My real goal was to get rid of the amber color. Would the rear side markers fit in the front?

Interesting concept, but I think flashing red lights towards the front end of a privately owned car are likely illegal most everywhere, unless you're a volunteer firefighter or paramedic or something.
